Fair enough. But transferring a file that's too big for many email servers over long distance at something less than 56K could be quite expensive. It also requires a significant amount of effort, which was one of the prohibited things in the original RFP.

How about writing a pair of perl (or python, since Tony's already got that installed) scripts to chop up the file and send it via email and then reassemble on the other side? Still too much effort?
