I recommend to all the users of our lists to avoid attachments simply to help our email server (a 9MB PPT sent to 500 people gets them upset). A link to a website hosting that file is a much better way to distribute that information. But, that said, we also have small long-distance working groups that share drafts of documents via attachments and there have been times when our Listserv archives have come in handy for backtracking to an older better version. So it all depends on the size and activity, the larger the list, the less you want to throw at it in one lump.

The fancy html is something I just have to put up with because our users WANT it.

IMHO, modern mail reading facilities make digests uninteresting. Modern Internet makes nohtml uninteresting. I'm still conflicted with attachments. 
Cheers, Wayne
