The person was just getting up your nose. While your messages *do* contain an
attachment (turn it off by setting to 'send plain text only' in your address
book settings for this list) but they are approximately the same size as the
original text anyway - only a few milliseconds of download time is added. This
is common for users of Microsoft email clients, so everyone go and look at your
setting to make sure you are set correctly.

I bet the person who complained is also the sort that starts beeping at traffic
lights if the cars don't start moving within 1/8 of a second.
