A customer brought her machine into the shop because she could not recieve her email...
Turns out another customer of ours (they both do animal rescue) sent her very large pictures of a very small dog. It made the message 3 MB, which takes long enough over a dial-up to appear stuck.

I do believe this is the first ever case of a puppy chewing up someone's email.

Cute, but yes, a several meg attachment (or even file) over 28.8k = painful+
