The list is configured to scrub any attachments. You will have to
upload it somewhere and share the URL.

Could you also elaborate on what you mean by "implement Indian script
in a Linux based Operating System"?

Once you provide an explanation of the phrase "implement Indian script
support" it would be easier for me to provide responses.
