In other words, a March festival or tour gets listed in the March issue, published in February, and not before. In exceptional circumstances, news of an event that takes place in the last ten days of a month can go in the following issue, e.g. if you missed the March issue with news of your event happening on March 27th, it may be able to go into the April issue published on the penultimate Thursday in March if we have space. Society has not yet worked out a sufficiently nasty punishment for people who abuse the e-waves in this manner.

Attachments can carry viruses.
To prevent all this happening, and to save the time we often spend on translating something which turns out to be junkmail, all attachments are now deleted unopened unless from a known contributer. Photos not needed for publication are an unnecessary cosmetic device. Sound files can be checked on a web site if we want to hear them.
