OK, now this is really cool. When receiving a message that is too large 
most mailing list servers will just reject the message sending an error 
back to the person sending it.

Mailman in this case, did 2 things. First it sent a message back to the 
person sending it saying that the message is being held because it was 
too large, and offered a link that would cancel the message. It also 
sent a message to the list owner letting them know that a message is 
being held because it was too large offering them the choice of letting 
the message through to the list or rejecting it.

Pretty cool stuff. (That is if you get excited about this kind of 
stuff...)
