How big a message will your ISP allow? Most have a limit of 2 to 10 MB.
Some smaller. Do you have a Web site you could upload it to and then send
him a link?

Thanks! I didn't realize that. I use netzero.com as my ISP. I was hoping
just to send it through there.

Thanks for such a quick response

The message is probably larger than your email provider's limit on how
large an outgoing email can be. Ask them what it is.

187mb is more than the message size limit many email providers
have for outgoing email. You may have to upload it to a web site
offering storage for videos and send your uncle a pointer to help
him find it.

Hi. I see I'm not the only one with this problem. Me and my brother make
family videos for fun, and we can't send videos over a certain MB size. Why
is this? Just the other day I tried to email a video (size 702MB) and a
message came up saying "Not enough Memory." Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks in advance,
Nick.

All the mail box providers have limits.
The limits for attachments go between 2MB and 10MB for the ones I know.
They must prevent too large emails because they don't have unlimited storage
capacities.
A way to exchange videos is to upload them on a web site and send a link to
it by email.
Although uploading 720MB can take a while.
Good luck!

 

[skerley]

You say to upload the video to a website and send the link, how do I do that?

 

[Dave]

Most email providers have a limit of 10 MB, Gmail has a 20 MB limit.
Even most big file hosting sites have a 100 MB limit.

Ask your email provider what their size limit is for outgoing messages.
This limit is usually tighter than any limit Windows Mail has, and is
often around 10 MB. The encoding process expands the attachment
as it adds it to the message, often around 30%.

Also, problems caused by antivirus programs are often incorrectly
reported, for example claiming there is not enough memory. What
if any antivirus programs do you have on that machine, and have
you ever had a Norton or McAfee antivirus program on that
machine?

 

[Dave]

Most email servers have a limit of 2 to 10 MB file size, Gmail has a 20 MB
limit. It's not a Windows Mail limit.
If you want to send a large file, you can't use email.
Your options are:
1. Use a p2p program, like ICQ or Skype
2. Use ftp if you have online space somewhere
3. Upload to a file sharing site, like http://www.thelinkup.com/ (was
MediaMax)

Only people who describe their problems clearly, and include complete
copies of any error messages they get, usually get useful answers.
