RE: Summarised Files

   Personally speaking, I'd like to see this list allow NO attachments, like
every other mail list that I'm subscribed to.  Every time I get mail from
this list, I get several of those stupid 'vcard' files.  I think I'm going
to save a month's worth and mail them all back to the senders - each as a
separate attachment.
