sidelight, it is interesting to note just how much the email encoding increases
the size. In the above example the email came in at 668K but the attachment
itself was only 493K. I have read somewhere - source lost in the mists of time
- that MIME encoding can increase the size by up to 50%. Tried it out for
myself by composing two emails with attachments. Three .jpg files total
size 1,740K created an email of size 2,386K while one .bmp file of 9,259K
created an email of size 12,671K</span></font><font size=3 color=black
