LARGE FILES:

if you have a large file, don't send it to the list, instead upload it and send out the name of the file and the link. the riseup lists faq. says "Currently, the maximum list email size is set to 100k, which we feel is more than enough. Big attachments consume lots of computer resources for little benefit. They are rude to people who are forced to download them, and most often the large attachment is not needed by the whole list. Please use shared web documents instead."

SHARED WEB SPACE DOCUMENTS:

our shared web space is at:

http://lists.riseup.net/www/d_read/slac-uw/

to upload a file into the slac web space, go to

http://lists.riseup.net/www/d_read/slac-uw/

at the bottom of the page, it says "Upload a file inside the folder SHARED" you can type your file name in the box or Browse for the file name you want to upload, then click the Publish button, and the file will be listed at the top of the same page: http://lists.riseup.net/www/d_read/slac-uw/

file names can't have any spaces in them, so if you have spaces, replace spaces with _ or - or just run the letters together.

for example: change My File.doc

to My_File.doc or my-file.doc or MyFile.doc or myfile.doc
