[Squeakland] spiral/attachments

[Kim Rose]

Hi, Phil, Shashank, and fellow Squeakers -

We're looking into the "attachments" problem and will write soon 
explaining or suggesting what to do when you want to include an 
attachment to your message.

Perhaps the answer is uploading to a server and then putting a url in 
your mail pointing to that project?  Mike/Bert is this an alternative 
method?  We need to be able to share and show projects and I believe 
we used to be able to do so.

thanks folks and sorry for inconvenience while we straighten this out,
Kim
