Jason and all,
As I mentioined earlier in the thread, didn't want to take this route, but
options are thin.. I'll change all the photo submission links on the site
to my waycon@bellsouth.net email address, still can be reached at
wayne@chevytrucks.org of course so if you gonna sent me a photo use the
bellsouth.net one.. This way the large files that get sent will not go
through the chevytrucks server and won't count against my bandwidth..
Homer Simpson stated it best----DOH!!!!! I'll make note of this on my
monthly chevytrucks.org monthly reminder.. --wayne

>>Jason,
>> I contacted the admin of my domain and just as I suspected--as long as
they go through the server, which a forwarded message will, it will still
be counted against my bandwidth usage. Oh well, looks like i'm back to
placing a size limit on them.
>>Good thought tho... --wayne

>>>Got to thinkin on this, the email would still go into the chevytrucks
servers-be recognized and then go out of their mail servers then onto
bellsouth account. I'm gonna contact the admins regarding this to see if
just the forward would be counted. Sounds feasable it would work but will
check on it with the admins.
