For those who are bandwidth challenged (i.e. still on dialup) the program you use to read your email may be able to help. I am using Microsoft Outlook and in the send and receive settings you can set it so if a message is over a size you specify it will only download the headers for that message. Then you can see the subject, size, and who it is from before choosing whether to download the message or delete it without downloading. I would imagine this would be possible with other email programs as well. Walt I think the better questions would be: 1. Does anyone on Dialup have something to say about this post? 2. Why would anyone want to post their family photo album to a motorcycle list? 3. Luc, do you see the error of your ways?? Fred http://www.arrowheadmotorsports.com

Walt, That's a good suggestion for the folks using programs that have that feature. Another thing that works is if the person sending a large attachment to a list makes sure the file is something that is of interest/appropriate, is as small as will get the point across and is not redundant/duplicate. : ) Best, Jeff Saline ABC # 4412 South Dakota Airmarshal Airheads Beemer Club www.airheads.org The Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota 75 R90/6, 03 KLR650, 79 R100RT <><><><><> <><><><><> On Sun, 02 May 2010 13:29:25 -0000 "kl650a14" writes:

I liked the one that was a device to dematerialize you and your bike and make it appear ahead of a road block, etc... The comments below it said, "Includes 9V battery and a walnut."  eddie
