i feel that your post is a bit spammy for a first post on the forums.

Re: e mail size limit?
 

I'm not even going to explain why sending emails of that kind of size is utterly moronic :) FTP = File Transfer Protocol, it's an absolute godsend, especially as it can send binary without having to expand its' size by 1/7th.

Re: e mail size limit?
 

Well, we are allowed to post links. If you post a link, then say "try this, this is good" (which is essentially what you did) then people will assume it's Spam.

If you do want to post a link, and are not sure, send it via PM to a mod. They can advise you.

BTW, if you regularly send mails of that size, it would be better to set up an FTP site somewhere and send people a link.

Why is NTLs inbox limit set at 10Mb?. Even hotmail has a 250Mb limit (not suggesting that as a limit - far too big). I usually get my emails through Outlook (and broadband connection) but sometimes I have to use dialup and webmail when away from home for a few days. Any large emails with photo attachments I get the Inbox full warning and the email is deleted.

NTL may be worried about everyone having full Inboxes, but a limit of 10Mb does seem small these days.

Re: e mail size limit?
 

OK, so have ntl set a limit of 10MB on the total size of our mailboxes, but is there a limit on the size of email I can send FROM my ntl email address to an address at another isp?
For example, could I send an 11MB email from my ntlworld address to a hotmail address (assuming my hotmail account has got enough free space to receive it)?

Thanks.

Re: e mail size limit?
 

the size of your inbox is 10meg.
If your timeout allows, you can send larger files to other mail servers.

Re: e mail size limit?
 

just like ntl have limits on size of emails, so do most ISPs. Although now commonly used to send large files, email was never intended for such use.
