Subject: [Leica] PLEASE READ !!!! / Dan & Marvin to LUG
From: Leikon35@aol.com
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 1998 01:09:52 EDT

 Yikes!  Bad Advice!  Please do NOT attach photos to your LUG messages.
 This is a sure way to generate a whole new thread that will finally put
 that filter/no filter fiasco to sleep.  Many people on the Internet pay by
 the minute, and it costs money to download a lengthy JPG.  It is considered
 bad form to send binaries (photographs) to mailing lists.  The only
 acceptable method is to post the URL, or to ask for people to email you
 privately for the photographs in question.

 ======================================================
 Since Brian did not set up the LUG as part of the WWW, what Dan has
 written here cannot be overly emphasized as only email can be sent to
 the LUG w/o causing problems.  Attachments can be sent in private mail
 or by email to & from users of aol4.0. ................................Marvin
