We don't do yEnc here.

Many, many people do yEnc, Ken.


yEnc is extremely rude to use on Usenet, WHAT does it matter that it
SHOULD
be easier to decode? WHAT purpose does it have except to show "look at
me,
I'm a really savvy techy person who has no Windows computers anywhere in
my
life!". Sheesh, it's ruder than HTML. Of course, Ken G. can't understand
why
we all just don't post JPG's on rec.antiques.radio+phono.

Well the purpose of yEnc is to have smaller files sent over the
Internet. That saves bandwidth and makes downloads and uploads faster
for those with slower connection speeds. It's not just people
deciding, "I'm going to be rude today and post some JPGs using yEnc."

You'd think someone keen to show off they're tech savvy enough to play with
yEnc would be tech savvy enough to have progressed on from dial up!
