So, my message gets through when I remove the attachment. <br>
Does the list reject messages with attachments ?<br>
Does it reject messages which are over a certain size ?<br>
Are there sunspots which are affecting my messages ?<br>

Who knows all the dirty secrets about the list ?<br>

Now now. Calm down and READ YOUR MAIL.<br>
<br>
When you send a message to the list that violates the list's policy,
you get a message titled "Your message to Linux-il awaits moderator
approval", with a precise explanation of why your message was not
posted to the list immediately. I have just sent a 100K file as
attachment and confirmed that this message IS received. Instead of
spaming the list, all you had to do was read your inbox to find out why
your message was not coming through.<br>
<br>
Here is the message I got for my test message:<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap="">Your mail to 'Linux-il' with the subject
Test big message (please delete if it gets through)
Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.
The reason it is being held:
Message body is too big: 138921 bytes with a limit of 40 KB
Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive
notification of the moderator's decision. If you would like to cancel
this posting, please visit the following URL:
