I'm takingthe liberty of reposting this for Barbara, our harried listowner, as there are a lot of new folks who won't have seen it.

Many, if not most, of our members cannot access these attachments, so their contents are not read, their questions not answered. These attachments unnecessarily increase the size of the digest to the point where some members' service providers reject the entire digest which means, of course, that those members miss out on the entire day's messages because of one or more members' lack of consideration. Please use your email's 'help' feature or ask someone for help in changing your settings to eliminate using the attachment option. If your service provider has an automatic reply system which acknowledges that you have received a message, please disable it. With the volume of messages posted to this list each day, the number of acknowledgements is overwhelming not only to me but to our listserver host which sends each and every one of them to me as an error message. Please make these changes as soon as possible.
