Default What is the attachment policy for this news group?

I just sent you an innocent Screen Shot - in JPEG format - of my current
WU because it had an interesting trough appearing in the graph at the
bottom. I briefly saw the post appear in the list, but, it has since
disappeared from the list.


Attachments are probably filtered by most newsservers. It took two days for
that picture to find its way through usenet to one of the newsservers my
leafnode setup pulls from, for example.

Is that because this news group does not accept any attachments,
regardless of format?


Yes.

How could a JPEG format attachment cause
problems?


Because it's significantly larger (over 1800 lines when encoded to text as
the attaching does), than other traffic.

If so, how can I send the info to the scientists? I'm almost
sure they would like to see it.


Any results from work units are automatically sent back to Seti@home when
you connect the next time and retrieve the next work unit.

I don't think this particular unit is that interesting though; the base
frequency is exactly 1.42Ghz. I seem to remember there were test signals of
various form in the data, 1.42Ghz sounds like a nice round number to put it
at. Setimon attempts to identify such signals (google or look at the links
pages at seti@home's homepage for setimon).
