I use Comcast but have been having problems sending files that are bigger than 2 megs.  I also use Outlook 2007.  The files hang out in the outbox and act like they've never been sent but the recipient keeps getting multiple copies ad infinitum.  Has anyone else experienced this and know how to fix it?  Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Big smile

I never send files as email attachments anymore as many mail servers refuse them.
 
Use one of the upload services like YouSendIt or Rapidshare.

Mediafire is really good. Still, Rapidshare is probably the best.

From my experience, Mediafire works best as long as the file is within proper size guidelines.

Google mail (gmail) allows up to 20MB in a single attachment.

Most ISP accounts (in Australia anyway) have a 2MB limit.

I use Rapidshare for file transfer and I've had no problems whatsoever.
Up to 100MB per file for non-members.

You could always chop up the file into little pieces (winrar can do that) and email them separately.

What?
