Not just an Internet problem. Quite often at work we get people emailing attachments then a few minutes later sending another copy after spotting a mistake in the original version. Whereas with the sensible alternative it wouldn't matter how many errors needed correcting and wouldn't eat up several hundred times the size of the file every time. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
