Why is that...does it have something to do with "time to live" for the message ? No.It's a storage and bandwidth issue for server admins mostly. Groups that are not text only always have the word "binary" in their name. These groups have messages that are much larger (byte wise) than the text only groups. This naming convention allows news admins to avoid the groups with huge messages if their server is on a slow link. |
