There is one glitch here that IMHO is a listserv bug.  If you have a
mailer that doesn't insert line ends so that each paragraph is one long
string, listserv counts that as one line, even though it may be
thousands of characters.

Again IMHO, listserv should multiply the sizelin value by (say) 75 and
fail the message if the total characters in the message exceed this
number.

Ben or Nathan, how about getting this into the suggestion box?
