Hi, trying to cram too many attachments into a single e-mail, I often hit (receiving) ISP sizelimits. While 99% sure a mail with a single photo would have gone through. Grouping them in several mails seems to be man adapting to the machine.
To automate this chore (next time:-) I looked at package metamail, which seems close. But it wants to cut up the attachments in (64 kB?) chunks, and encode them. I prefer to send whole attachments and photographs seem small enough. The afio vs tar/gzip idea. I was thinking of a non-yet-existing script smetasend: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/photo/holiday$ smetasend [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] *.jpg And the script would then send the required number of single attachment mails. Perhaps with a list in each body, so the receiver can complain about missed ones. Does such a script/program already exist? Or is it even part of your favourite e-mail client? mvg Boudewijn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
