[MD] 10K Limit

[Horse]

Hi Platt
Don't panic - I'm only bumping posts that aren't edited properly.
I'm not bothered if a post is over 10K as long as it's properly edited.
All I'm trying to do is to get members to refrain from just copying 
whole posts and adding a couple of lines at the beginning - I'm not 
commenting on content, just how much irrelevant content is included.
The vast majority of posts are already less than 10K.
It's a bit tricky trying to predict how much text constitutes 10K as it 
depend on whether you create an email in plain text, rich text, html etc.
