But I think documents beyond a certain size limit should be announced on the net and availbale via an FTP server upon request. The UK profile that has been sent is roughly 0,33 megaoctets and since with my email service I pay CAD 0,24 per kilo-octet transmitted (even upon receipt), this is going to be very expensive for a document useless for me: I have not the program to unshrink it, I could not have time to print it (and to uudecode it at once) and so on. So please the next time, let's all try to be more reasonable. I have no anger as I believe in the good faith of the sender. But as we say in French: "L'enfer est pav de bonnes intentions".
