Thank you to those who have answered.  I think I'm going to take Pete's
advice.  Someone posted about there being about 800 lines in a pic, I think
it was Barbara, and I have a couple of list members who could use up about
800 lines just in text!  So, that setting would be a bit troublesome.
Anyway, I think we'll stay as we are, not allowing attachments on the list.
For some of our overseas digest folks, having to wade through code would be
a very poor option, since they pay for their time online.  (Never fails that
someone would invent a toll booth on the information superhighway . . .

I vote against sending attachments, unless subscribers are willing to 
maintain their mailboxes from overflowing; have up to date anti-virus 
software and signatures; your archives have sufficient space to handle it.

Use the WEB for such ... that's what it's there for ;-)
