I'd say... yes: the start of this thread kind of proves [1] it. So most probably the attachment is part of the problem. @Dedeco: as Greg says, spam filtering is a complex thing. As far as I know, this list uses SpamAssassin, which is based on rules and heuristics -- and lots of tuning (thanks to the team behind it, otherwise we would be drowning in spam!) Someone said 150k is "monstrous". This depends on the context, of course. But for a mailing list this size (we have roughly 3k subscribed members [2]), 150k seems a bit heavy, yes. I wouldn't do it. Cheers [1] for a very sloppy value of "proof" :) [2] https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ - t
