Thanks so much, Eric, for hosting this list.

I have questions about the Lyris list server software that runs this list:

 Can you set Lyris to bounce all techwrl posts that contain attachments?

 Can you set Lyris to bounce all techwrl posts bigger than 20K?*

Either rule would prevent the current problems. Bouncing posts with
attachments would especially be useful to solve future problems with viruses
that manifest as .pif files and .exe attachments.

Thanks,

* I visually scanned the last 243 non-attachment posts on the list and all
but five were less than 10K. The rest were 11K to 13K.
