Sure, it kind of works, but I've seen it cause some frustration on lists 
before. "Hey, HEY, I'm no automatic file-by-mail server or something!" and 
that kind of things... :-)

Some FTP space solution also catches the cases where you want to share files 
that are too big to attach. (Well, big enough to get you a bunch of enemies 
if you attach them, that is. ;-)


OTOH, this isn't exactly a high traffic list, so any solution will probably 
work rather well.
