Since attachments tend to be much bigger than plain text messages, putting a size limit of maybe 600 lines or so (Sizelim= 600) on the messages works pretty well to eliminate attachments in general. (The "Pretty Park" virus going around here lately appears to be over 1000 lines long.) If someone -does- have a really long plain text message, they can always break it into part 1, part 2, etc. Margaret King ([log in to unmask]) Michigan State University
