Hi Group,

I know I have posted on this subject before but once again someone is
sending HUGE files to this group. I have tried to block him out but for
some reason the posts keep coming!

Is there no way we can have a maximum file size limit ? Is there a
moderator who could take some action?

These files are preventing me from enjoying the fruits of all the
excellent picture takers who contribute to this group and, incidentally,
costing me money.

Please don't tell me to get Broadband it is not available in this area.


Do you seriously mean that you can't choose what to download from
this group? If so, it's time to get a newsreader that lets you choose.


I use XNews. It's free.

And I second the suggestions made by others, most notably getting
a "real" news reader.

Also, being an "alt" group, there is by definition no moderation
capability.
