Hi,
I tried to email a short home video but the error message said the data size
is larger than permitted. Is there a way to email these videos?
Thank you so much for responding.

======================
A simple alternative is to upload the
file to the following site and send your
recipients the link for downloading it.

"YouSendIt"
http://www.yousendit.com/

All you have to do is enter an e-mail
address in the "To:" (Recipient) field
and click the "Browse" button to select
the file you wish to upload. Then click
the "Send It" button.

The next screen that appears will give
you the download link. Just copy/paste
it into the message to your recipients
who can download and view the file on
their computer.

Video files are quite large. Most email servers have a limit of 2 to 10 MB
file size, Gmail has a 20 MB
limit. If you want to send a large file, you can't use email.

Some options are:

1. Use a p2p program, like:
ICQ (http://www.icq.com/download/)
Skype (http://www.skype.com)
Google Talk (http://www.google.com/talk/)

2. Use ftp if you have online space somewhere

3. Upload to a file sharing site, like:
http://www.thelinkup.com (was MediaMax)
http://www.yousendit.com
http://www.dropsend.com
http://www.sendthisfile.com
