Hi Joe:
You might want to see my postings to Irwin and his response. I'm not impressed.
Hello Irwin:
Would you please adjust your e-mail program so that it does not send
attachments to others. This is becoming a problem for me and others. I
received 43k worth of attachments to my hard drive with this mornings
downloads. You sent 3 separate items as follows:
begin: vcard
fn: Irwin Armstrong
n: Armstrong;Irwin
org: Centrehouse
email;internet: armstrong@btinternet.com
note: Ballymena N. Ireland
x-mozilla-cpt: ;0
x-mozilla-html: FALSE
end: vcard
begin: vcard
fn: Irwin Armstrong
n: Armstrong;Irwin

email;internet: armstrong@btinternet.com
note: Ballymena N. Ireland
x-mozilla-cpt: ;0
x-mozilla-html: FALSE
end: vcard

Irwin:
They aren't immediately deletable. They go directly onto the hard drive
and bypass the e-mail system. To delete them I have to enter various
folders within the system folder on my hard drive then I have to drag each
of these postings to trash and delete them. This has happened with others
on the list but they have courteously changed that aspect of their mailer.
I don't ask to receive your attachments just your postings to the list.
There is a difference. If you prefer to set your computer this way for
business, please do so for business not for your other computer uses.
