That is likely filtered. Please don't do huge attachments on public lists or even off list for that matter. It is rude. Just upload it somewhere and send a link.

How much network traffic are you generating!!
Think of people on dialup, and those with small download limits. And those with (say) 10 Mbyte mailboxes.
A lot of people would be upset if you did that.
No attachments at all is the best practice. Prune excess quotes, add what you need. Otherwise, upload somewhere and post a link, or email on request.
