Size of mail: Graphics, pictures, and definitely waves (sound bits) can be sizable in the computer world. E-mail nothing over about an
absolute maximum of 1 mb. 500kb or less is even better, and is recommended by many e-mail servers.
Large e-mail can cause serious problems in ongoing e-mail service for the receiver . It can block their ability to send or receive e-mail at all,
and they will end up needing to contact their Internet Service Provider by phone, and cause them to lose all e-mail that came in after yours. You should also remember that a great number of
people have to pay for the amount of their Internet connection time. Ask permission before you send out pictures, or make sure they are small (in megabytes).
Pure text shouldn't cause you problems with file size of e-mail. It's the graphics, waves, and attachments that you need to be concerned
with.
