[NSRCA-discussion] FW: Your message to NSRCA-discussion awaits moderator approval

[John Gayer]

I'd bump it up to .5 meg or more.
Anyone who is on dialup or has mailbox limitations should immediately 
get a gmail, hotmail or similar account as Tom points out. Then if you 
don't want to download attachments due to a dialup connection, you don't 
have to.
Is there a significant portion of the list that is still on dialup?
