Default Outlook won't send large attachments

Hi Milly,

I'm having this problem too. My Outlook 2003 will not send emails that are
larger than 6 or 7mb, though when I had 2000, I didn't have this issue. I
tried what you suggested with changing the timeout and I recieved an error
that said "that account name is already in use, choose another name" it
won't do it. So I'm at a loss and I do have to send contracts over my email,
I've tried using .rar .zip ,etc but none compress down small enough to send
at 5 to 6 MB; my ISP said my limit is 10MB per email.

Any suggestions on this issue above and any suggestions on some other
compression programs would be of tremendous assistance as I deal is some
fairly large PDF files, and I've seen some that are over 40pgs compressed
down to a 6MB file.

I've also noticed that I'm getting errors on trying to start Outlook when
having re-boot the system that it can't access the .pst folder and on exiting
I get a major error, and all I was able to gather was this...

App. Name: Outlook.exe
App. Version: 11.0.8.206.0
App. Stamp: 479ce0d
ModName: kernel32.dll
ModVer: 5.1.200.3119
Mod Stamp: 46239bd5
fDebug: 0 Offset: 00012a5b
c:\Docume (funny little symbol - not on my keyboard)1\Sunnys(funny
symbol)1\Locals(funny symbol)1\Temp\1750875.cvr

Not sure what this is all about ....

Thanks in advance for any assistance...
Sunny


While not a neat solution, you could open Outlook Express, let it import
your account settings but don't make it the default. It has an option
in the setup to split apart large E-Mails and they get re-assembled
seamlessly at the other end. There doesn't seem to be this option in
Outlook.

Or upload files to one of the Free storage spots, like
http://www.mediafire.com/

Then let the recipient have the unique URL to download the file

Default Outlook won't send large attachments

Hi Frenchy,

Guess I'm not following... using outlook express. I used to be able to send
large files with 2000 no problem. Just seems to be with 2003. Though I like
many of the updated features on 2003, it really has a lot of problems. Not
sure if it's from my install or if it's something else. Is this also a
problem with 2007? I was considering upgrading to that, hoping that that
would be an issue resolved...

Thanks,

Sunny
