How do I attach zipped files?

[Guest]

I am trying to send a large group of jpeg photos. I used the "compress files"
option which worked well. Then the message sends but it always returns
undelivered. How can I send these files through Outlook? Thank you!

Have you verified that the email was not received by the intended recipient?
Also, you may or your recipient may have a mailbox cap OR an allowable
attachment receipt size (especially if they are at work). What does your
undelivery email tell you? There should be something in the email that
defines the issue.

Most email accounts have a max size for an email you can send, or it
the server you are sending it to will reject the email. That is
probably what is happening. Use winzip or windows XP zipping
capabilities to zip up the pictures, and then see how big the file is.
If it's over 10 MB, this is probably to problem, and you need to break
it up into several zip files and send them independently.
