Good point. Can we get back to discussing how to lock the
door? At least two approaches seem appealing to me - ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org
doesn't forward messages over 32 kbyte, and only forwards messages
that are plain ASCII. So... who can actually make this happen,
and why isn't it done yet?
So...has anyone gone back and done the analysis on the archive
to see what the actual message size range happens to be?
32KB happens to be a bit on the largish side for ACSII TEXT
messages.
