Ok.
Images posted to this group seems to have an average size
about 200 KB, so image sizes up to 300 or 400 KB might be
accepatable. But one should always consider using the JPEG
file format and check how low the quality settings can be
set before the contents of the image starts to degrade.

This is to preserve server space and to make life easier
for those who only have a low-speed internet connection.

Ooops ! Sorry to mislead you. What I meant was Thunderbird:

http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/

Thunderbird is an email and news client, while Firefox is a
web browser.

I see that you are now using "Mozilla 4.5 [es]". Isn't that
a very old version of Netscape ?

As of today, the "Mozilla Suite" seems to have reached v1.7.

Thunderbird and Firefox are good, lightweight standalone
and quite secure programs based on the Mozilla codebase.
IIRC they have some refinements and features that are not
found in the programs integrated into the Mozilla Suite.
(But I may be wrong about this.)

And all these Mozilla programs are open and free.
