Hi all,

I just noticed that attachments made to posts on [ruby-forum.com](http://ruby-forum.com) don’t  
get send by mail anymore. Some time ago, there was a statement like  
“Attachments: foobar.rb” if somebody attached something. Now it’s just  
not there anymore. Should I visit [ruby-forum.com](http://ruby-forum.com) now each time something  
was attached via the website?

Example: The attachment of this post:  
[Unable to preload "rbconfig" in my irb session - Ruby - Ruby-Forum](http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/253566#954898) was not send via mail.

Vale,  
Marvin

if you want to share code you can use [codepad.org](http://codepad.org) and include a link in  
the email link:

[http://codepad.org/ZvvCFDmT](http://codepad.org/ZvvCFDmT)

people can look at the code and level you a comment at that site, or  
use:

[http://refactormycode.com/](http://refactormycode.com/)

which is a site with more of a community feel to it

It’s not me, I know about where I can post/upload files. I was thinking  
about those who don’t care about the mailing list backend and just  
attach files via [ruby-forum.com](http://ruby-forum.com). When I get such a mail and the author  
mentions he attached something I know “it’s on [ruby-forum.com](http://ruby-forum.com), let’s  
visit it”, but that takes unnecessary time and in many cases a post’s  
author doesn’t mention he attached something. Then I just overlook it  
and maybe can’t answer a question I was able to answer if I knew about  
the attachment.

A gist at [http://github.com/](http://github.com/) is another option. A gist can contain  
multiple files.
