Question is which end is timing out? If they are using Outlook/Outlook Express, try going into the individual account settings on the client side and setting it up to 5 minutes. The default is only 1 minute. This has worked for us for some clients who get large file attachments sent to them. Mostly .SWF files containing jokes and suck. Damn JoeCartoon.com, if they weren't so funny I'd filter them all.
