With respect to the below advice, how to handle an image-in-message might
depend on your email program.  With mine, to avoid resending an image, AFTER
clicking Reply or Reply-all click on the image to select it, and then
Delete.

Also, if you use Reply-all to send to the list, delete the original sender
from the address so they do not get a duplicate (as I have done with this
message).

Greetings, I trust your birding year has begun well. (It has for me as on
Sunday I got a lifer!)

Over the last couple of weeks we have had a number of emails posted to the
list that are many times the size limit of 100 kb. If you wish to attach
images to your emails, please check the size before sending it to the whole
list. One simple way to do so is to email it to yourself first, and check
the size of the email when you receive it.

Also, we are having cases where people are replying to a list email and, by
some means, sending the original poster's attachments back to the list. To
avoid this duplication please use the 'reply' function, not the 'forward'
one.

These simple rules are for the benefit of people who are forced to use slow
internet connections, and for those who access CanberraBirds via their
mobile devices with limited downloads available.

Finally, this announcement and discussion list is provided as a free service
by Canberra Ornithologists Group Inc.  If you enjoy using it, and are not
yet a COG member, please consider joining. To do so just visit

Regards - David
