 While an appology is certainly accepted, it is also unnecessary, as my
 intent was not a reprimand at all, but simply a suggestion for future
 as it's often a problem for me ( a buisness asociate who insists on
 e-mail attaching 100K + word docs to a large list, and which often 
 causes POP3 to inexplicably hang indefinately, perhaps permanently ).

 While certainly better, mine is available for miscelaneous whatever 
 until such time as something better becomes available.
 It will max out at around 10 meg or so presently.
