I cannot send email with 200KB+ attachments via mail.availablelight.tv with
thunderbird but can with other email clients (oe,eudora,etc).

I can always successfully send messsages without attachments

there is no size limit on this server 

I am on a machine behind a NAT router, with no firewall activated on the machine
or between me and the internet.





Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set up thunderbird using mail.availablelight.tv as your smtp server
2. send message with attachment over 200KB to anybody

Actual Results:  
progress bar goes upto x% then get:

"...the messsage could not be sent connecting to SMTP server
mail.availablelight.tv. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP
connections..." 

dialog box

Expected Results:  
sent the message

System Version:	Mac OS X 10.3.8 (7U16)
Kernel Version:	Darwin 7.8.0

Similar outcomes also occurs on TB Win XP Pro and Moz 1.7 on the same machine
