I agree that at times, sender's html signatures could be larger than the actual message body itself. ;) However i think setting the moderation bit on that basis alone would just create an un-necessary overhead of moderation.<br>
<br></div>I think the connectivity in Africa is improving and i think we should just be fine with those extras kb. <br><br>Nevertheless as Alan and Owen has mentioned, it will be helpful if list members endeavour to avoid those large size signatures :)<br>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">While I agree with Alan on the pointless and gratuitous waste of bandwidth devoted to this type of message format, I do have to point out that in this day and age, even in Africa, a message that remains less than 100Kbytes is unlikely to represent a significant issue, even at the scale of the rpd traffic on it's busiest days.<br>
<br>
An occasional polite request to try and keep messages to plain text as much as possible should be all that is required here.<br>
<br>
I think moderation and/or message stripping is excessive and unnecessary. It also carries the further disadvantage of preventing a network diagram or other such small infographic from being used when it would add clarification and perhaps avoid 100s of Kbytes of discussion and misunderstanding.<br>
<br>
Just my $0.02.<br>

The moderator could delete unnecessary attachments, or simply ask the sender to try again without the attachment. The moderator could approve messages with useful attachments.<br>
