Suggestions:

  - Set your linewrap to 72 characters.

  - Paste text to your message, don't send attachments (particularly
    graphics) to list to convey textual information.  You used 23 KB to
    send 400 bytes of data.  In a format that's difficult to reference.

A text-based mailer such as mutt provides the ability to pipe output of
console commands directly into a message.

What is in your /etc/lilo.conf?  Have you tried adding an explicit
'mem=128M' at your LILO boot prompt, or is there an existing 'MEM='
option?  Most modern systems will automatically register the proper
amount of memory. 

Peace.
