Check before sending large files

["Geoffrey Dabb" <>]

The ‘Properties’ interrogation may not work for self-generated messages.  If  in doubt, I first send these to myself to check the size, then ‘Forward’. There are endless ways for we retirees to amuse ourselves.   It would be far beyond the scope of this chatline to mention some of the others [ ;-) ]. 

 

By the way, Roger, how’s the Little Eagle site?  I have had no reports of any new sites for this season.

Apologies to all who were inconvenienced by my large email.

 

At least I now know how to check the size, and so do you, if you follow Roger's instructions, when considering whether to forward on a document.

Hi Tony,

You aren't serious are you ?

About the size limits I mean .

Just in case you were it certainly exceeded them.

It was just over 2.9 Meg something which is easy to check.

Right click on the message and then click properties.

 

Also the story has been on the web for ages.

See www.juliusbergh.com/cocky/

 

If you had just posted that link it might have been 10KB.

Do I care, not really.

Hope that this does not blow size limits - I can't tell how big it is.
