And he did speak of that. Turn off your selective reading, Hamish.

Work Tech Support at an ISP for two weeks. You'll get sick of hearing
from people who get 2-3Mb attachments from people which clogs their email
until Admin gets in there to clear it out. When they hear what the
attachment is, most times it is with exasperation that they will speak with
the individual who sent it since they didn't want it. Happens about 4-5
times a week on a *small* ISP of only 7,000 customers. Meanwhile the
converse, people complaining about large mails not getting through is maybe
4-5 a year.
