File size of Attachments

What is it that limits the size of attachments I can send. Is the software,
Windows Mail for Vista, is a my security program, Bullguard, or is it my
Server? I received a mail with 3 photos attached, without problems, but when
I try to forward it, I can only attach them 1 at a time, and even then, one
of them is too big.

Re: File size of Attachments

How large is the attachment and to how many people do you send it at a single time.

Re: File size of Attachments

The size limit is set by your mail server, or by the recipient's mail
server, whichever one has stricter limits.
