I tried to send attached in an MP3 file (song) from 8.65MB. Thunderbird refuses to send it because it is too high and asks me to reduce it. I obviously know that the MP3 is itself a compressed file. Is there a way to send the post?
Thank you for your advice.
Through Thunderbird, I do not know, but you can always go through an uploader like megaupload.com, simply add the link in the message and then it's done.
Your email provider may limit the attachment size and a little is also added usually by an MUA's own encoding.
Normally the limits are in the region of 5Mb-10Mb
Well as I have already said, my MP3 attachment is well below 10MB. The limit of all my providers are 10MB. What would be my problem? I do not think the problem is the limit of the attachment usually in outlook express I did not have this kind of problems to send attachments upto 10MB.
This is a known 'feature' that sometimes Thunderbird may have problems with sending big files, especially when running on a PC with antivirus software checking outgoing mail. Once I supposed this might depend on the provider but I never have such problems after I switched to Linux :ohyeah:
