For larger files there is always FTP; in one case I put such a file on my website, so the recipient (who didn't know FTP) could download it from there. (Please don't send me emails with attachments that large.) But there is a solution for you: TB has the capability of internally splitting large messages into smaller chunks (for example 16k or 100k per partial message) which will be reassembled at destination by the recipient's email client. This was tested with TB and OL/OE as recipient clients and it worked. However, I cannot find the option now, where is it? -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
