    I got different results!

    I unchecked the option to limit to 350kb and immediately received my
    own test message with image. Then had someone resend the problem
    message with image [1.4 Mb] from yesterday and that came up also,
    marked as an attachment. This is Thunderbird 12.0.1 and Fedora-16/64
    derived from xfce live.

    I'll leave it that way for a while, until I start receiving large
    files I don't want! The problem is not really solved but I now know
    how to live with it.

    Thanks,

    Bob
