Hi folks,<br>
<br>
In the past few weeks, multiple people have been thwarted in trying to<br>
send legitimate messages to the list that were over the previous 200K<br>
size limit. Back in the early days of this list**, most users were on<br>
dialup connections, e-mail was largely plain text and 200K was a large<br>
message.<br>
<br>
These days though, I expect the majority of subscribers have some flavor<br>
of broadband Internet connection and 200K can be a real challenge when<br>
sending attachments such as contest announcements, results, entry forms<br>
and whatnot. Out of respect to those with slower connections, the list<br>
still has a size limit, but I've increased it to 500K which would have<br>
been sufficient to pass all the recently blocked messages on the first try.<br>
<br>
If folks really have a problem with the size increase, I'll be glad to<br>
reconsider - please contact me off list.<br>
<br>
** We're coming up on 11 years of archived pattern know-how and history,<br>
can you believe that!?<br>
