You cannot send any attachements through the the mgs email list. 
Forwards and pictures go as attachments.  Look at all of the forwards
you get from everyone and you will see the paper clip indicating that
the forward letter is ATTACHED to the NEW email, and majordomo doesn't
like them.  An advantage to this is it elliminates alot of wasted
computor storage and time.  You can use reply to sender, and then
quote the message.  Or cut and paste.

Or if you wish to send a different person a copy of an email you
received  you must use cut and paste.

Cut and paste using using a Netscape browser, which I have, is done
by:

1)  Place cursor at the first letter of the material to be copied.
2)  Press and hold the left mouse button
3)  Drag across the text you want to copy and as you do it will
highlight.  CAUTION don't release the left button until you've got all
of the material high lighted, or else you will have to start over. 
Release the button at the end of the portion you want to copy
4)  Click on EDIT
5)  click on COPY
6)  Click on NEW MESSAGE or REPLY TO, etc.
7)  Click the cursor into the body of the message.
8)  Click on EDIT
9   Click on PASTE
10  Finish the message by clicking the sursor in Address, and Subject.
