Sending photos via emai and outlook, What is max. size file sendable?

[Joe]

I need to send mutliple photos with large amounts of
megabytes via internet and cannot seem to figure out how
to do this very easly. Will Outlook allow me to send a
bunch of photos that are relatively large in size. What
is the maximum total megabytes of information that
outlook will let me send in one email.

A good rule of thumb is 3-5 MB per email sent. I have
seen some email servers accept up to 7MB of attachments.
I try to limit to 3MB to avoid slow downloads for my
recipients

To post large volumes of photos you may want to consider
posting them to a web service where you can invite only
those you choose, to view and download.

www.ofoto.com (Kodak)- requires registration and will
attemp to sell your recipients prints but it's free,
pasword protected, and painless. Be careful of
questionable content photo...a good spot to send those
kids photos to grandparents, vacation photos, etc... but
not those pictures of the neighboor's wife

Depends on your ISP's mail size limits. Ask them. Most people on POP
accounts will have trouble with 5MB and up - and if they're on dialup,
they'll be saying bad things about you while they're waiting for it to
download. Might want to upload them to a site like www.shutterfly.com or
similar....and then just send the people a link.
