Consequences of Bad Use of E-Mail

• Your mail will likely bounce, because:
  • Other sites have (often small) limits on e-mail size

  • Other users may filter mail and reject large files

• For really large files, or even modest size files with many recipients, it may fill up spool areas

• It may fill up the recipient's disk quota on non-NRAO systems

• It doesn't look good (you should show you know what you're doing)

• It can have an effect on everyone (if mail delivery stops)
