Thanks Ann, you said it more fluently and diplomatically than I ever would.
Nancy, I appologize if I offended you. No offense intended.

Hi all,
Bob, although you are right in that wav files or MP3 files can contain
viruses I think Nancy Lynn, the assistant for the Books And Beyond show on
Accessible World, is not deliberately sending a virus to the Bookshare
list.
Nancy, it would help suspicious netizens like me and Bob, if you had
identified yourself in your email, told us what the file was about and so
on. I knew who you were, but I'm afraid that if I didn't, my response to
your message would have been the same as Bob's.
<smiling> It is always a good idea when attaching a file, any file at all
etext, wav,mp3, xls or whatever, to clearly identify the attachment,
identify yourself by name and by organization, (names can be spoofed), say
why you are sending this file and so on. Many lists do not allow
attachments. That is why you'd be much safer giving a URL for the
location of a sound file rather than trying to attach one.
These voice-mail outfits are OK, but unless you really must use voicemail
because of some disability or other, best to send etext and a URL for a
sound file. Many people use VoiceMail on networks such as SAMN, but
sending such a thing to a regular email distribution list is not a good
idea, especially if it is a wav file.
An hour worth of wav file, depending on bit rate and sampling rate can be
larger than 250MB. Ten minutes would be about 42MB alone, so you may
want to choose a different media to send out announcements.

No thanks, that's a good way to get a bad virus.
