Seldom is there anything in the attachment that is graphically significant.
Usually the message is adequately transmitted by cutting/pasting into the
e-mail program.
Obviously attachments take many more keystrokes to delete than e-mail
I personally limit sending attachments to individuals whom I am reasonably
sure REQUIRE the added information.
I believe that I have NEVER sent an attachment to a listserv, where no-one
has explicitly expressed their desire to receive attachments.
