The trouble with that is that most people would not be able to cope with
that. What they have is a mailbox that they can with attached files &
get a mail back with URLs that they can paste into mails that they
send to the list.

I had enough problems getting most of them to realise that multi megabyte
attachments is not a good idea.

I searched & failed, which is why I wrote my own.

BTW:

I realised that I was opening myself up to cross site scripting problems,
so I had to add a few more suffixes:

	AddType text/plain .php .pl .cgi .html .shtml .htm .xhtml .xht .css .sgml .sgm .xml .xsl
