The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Erik Olson <address@concealed>]

This is perhaps a long-shot.  I've been running some e-mail lists for 
aquarium hobbyists for over 20 years now, probably using Sympa for the 
last decade.  One of the things that has always been a problem, but has 
gotten worse as people have transitioned to using their phones, is the 
ease of attaching 12-megabyte raw photos to the messages.  While we've 
avoided the direct problem of e-mail bloat by setting the message size 
limit to 1 MB, it's now gotten to where people just give up rather than 
try and find a way to reduce the images and resend.

I'd like to find a solution where for a particular list we just 
automatically resize & recompress any jpegs above a threshold.    Not 
sure if this is something that could be done within Sympa's framework.  
But if it could, this would be a very powerful tool.  Not a perl 
programmer, but I am a programmer. Thanks for any insight!
