[Dxspider-support] [administrivia] Enclosing screenshots (TL&DR Please don't send them)

[Dirk Koopman]

This is one of my occasional reminders about about screenshots in 
mailing list posts ...

There is a default limit on the mailing list 75KB for a post, any post 
larger than this means that

a) Your email will be delayed by ...
b) Me waking up and seeing an email with some admin to do ...
c) And me doing it.

Now I accept that *sometimes* only a screenshot will do, but mostly it 
could be better done with a copy'n'paste (<ctrl>c <ctrl>v). This reduces 
the bandwidth and storage requirements of the mailing list by a factor 
of more than 10. Also, the storage arrangements of large attachments in 
the mailing list software is, erm, a bit crude and I would prefer that 
attachments (which include screenshots) are not sent.

Thank you for your attention.
