Outlook Express is an e-mail client. Only your server has restrictions and
you would have to ask them.

Three things to remember:

When sending a large attachment, consider if the recipient would like to see
something that large trying to download. 50MB is huge and I wouldn't want to
see it. Think of an alternative like uploading to a site like TinyPic and
just e-mailing the URL.

TinyPic:
http://tinypic.com/

Any graphic, sound, or video adds about 35~40% to the actual size due to
encoding. So, a 10MB file will end up being about 13.5 to 14MB when you send
it.

Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer
of protection that eats up CPUs, slows down sending and receiving, and
causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes
and has even been responsible for lose of messages. Your up-to-date A/V
program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:

Note that for some AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program
and reinstall in Custom Mode and opt out of e-mail scanning when the option
arises.
