message too big (was Re: Counting problem)

[dunbarx at aol.com]

The problem is definitely colorized and formatted text taken directly from the script editor. 


I have a utility that I keep open doing just what Dar said. I push F12, and a script runs that takes each char tChar in the clipboardData and replaces it with numToChar(charToNum(tChar)).


If I forget, I always get the message bounced back, even if it is just a few lines. A pain.

I suspect the size assessment is before stripping the formatted version of the 
email.  Maybe converting for plain text helps.  

On the other hand, maybe it is time for formatting if any issues for that can be 
resolved.  It would be nice to have colorized scripts in email.  So, maybe a 
higher limit or a better measure.
