Yes - I don't seem to receive all the postings: 7.6%
No: 90.2%
My Comments: It's encouraging to see that most don't have problems,  
but I'll continue to work on making Phono-L as spam filter friendly as  
possible.

4. Would you like the ability to attach scans, photos and PDF  
documents to your Phono-L postings?
Yes: 89.0%
No: 11.0%
My Comments: Your wish is my command. As of today, you can attach  
photos and documents, with two requirements. First, they must be jpg  
or pdf format only - all other types of attachments are blocked.  
Second, your entire message can't be over 200k bytes. Attachments are  
automatically uploaded to the server and linked in your post. I would  
still encourage you to use a photo sharing site if you need to send  
more than a couple of small photos.
