Well, how big is a "big" message?
We have a limit of 5 MegaBytes here, subject to reduction at any
time.
Folks who want us to receive bigger files can put them on a web

Folks who want us to send them bigger files can make arrangements
to have them placed on our external webserver, possibly with
password protection.
