Under the circumstances it would be more than fair to ask Marsha to
pay the telco toll you incurred for the download of her unwanted post.
She could buy you a  year's PA subscription; easily done by smail.

1) Ask here before posting large files of any type to this list to see
who might want them send privately.

2) I will reset message size limits on posts to this forum but will
still allow attachments of any type.
