Big e-mail question

ozsat · 24-07-2007, 16:14

I'm trying to send a 7mb PDF file from one NTL account to another NTL user.

The sen fails saying it is too big as it is over 10mb.

I don't want to split the file.

Can I send it easily in one piece?

If you're using Outlook Express try:

tools / accounts
then select the relevant account
properties / advanced
then tick 'break apart messages larger than' and put say 1024 kbyte

When your email gets to the other end it will be reassembled automatically.

Alternatively, park a copy in your free ntl webspace and pass a link instead.

I use Netscape - but tried webmail as well

I've gone the link route - but would like to know if > 10mb is possible in one go.

Not sure at what you mean by that, but certainly on the ex NTL email system any email greater than 5MB can't be sent in one hit. Would it reduce to less than 5Mb if you zipped it?
