How does THIS work? Does EVERYONE on this newsgroup get an attachment with no explanation or description?

Is it just me? I hate to think I am missing out on a photo of a beautiful and naked batten bunny or something important like that!

Only the rare message needs to be downloaded as I have described. Most newsgroup postings can be viewed by clicking on 'message
