[Cuis-dev] (Rescued) Re: Message too large (mailing list issue)...

[Casey Ransberger]

Hey Ken,

We can always use external image and video hosting. Stick it on imgur or photobucket (is photobucket still a thing? Hah! Haven’t thought about that in rather a while.) Then just paste in the link. YouTube, as unfortunate as it has become, is still a place to put video. 

Mailman suuuuuucks and administering it suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks. I used to get random errors like this when I hadn’t logged in to delete list spam for too long. 

Probably better to put the load on another service, rather than on the list server.
