[SEL] Error posting to the SEL List

[fero_ah at city-net.com]

Hi Jerry,

The only time I've had trouble with a post to the list was when it was too
large.  Spencer screens on file size to prevent attachements from being posted.
 This is mainly to block nasty code that could cause computer damage.

If a thread grows and no one bothers to snip out the dross, at some point it
will grow large enough to go into Spencer's bit bucket as "suspicious." 
Spencer has a lot on his plate, so he may be a while getting to it.  And he may
just dump it as it's a large file because folks simply aren't doing THEIR job
and snipping.

Sometimes you may want to post a VERY long show report or lengthy description of
some engine work.  It may need to be split into several parts to be of a size
that doesn't get screened.

Try doing just a small test email to the list to see if you still have troubles.
 Obviously, this post made it, so it's probably size related.

AND if EVERYONE would be a little more considerate and SNIP!!  8-))

See ya,  Arnie
