Holy sh!t!  That's a LOT of megabytes!  I really hope Paul's not using a
standard modem.

Seriously, you might want to consider some kind of FTP server (hmm, but who
would let you plunk down 500MB...?), or burning to CD and overnight
shipping; that much data can seriously clog up an eMail box, *if* the ISP
lets it go through at all...  OTOH, maybe you know something I don't know.
