You could try to compress the file into an executable ZIP file. However, there have been some compatibility issues concerning ZIP files with some email providers. If the file cannot be 'split up' and sent via multiple emails, then another option would be to upload the file to a file-sharing website, and send the intended receiver the link to download it.
One can send a file that is too large for email by first uploading the file onto a file hosting service site like Mediafire. The link of the file can then be shared and sent.
if the file is too large then use Winrar program to compress the file (use highest setting of compression within program). If it's still too big to send out, then use the application's feature of breaking it down into parts (the feature is "Split into Volumes, in bytes". Enter the number of bytes such as 2,000,000 bytes (2MB). Winrar is a good program... and best of all it's FREE. Once you've sent the parts (either Zip or RAR format), the recipient of the attachments must download Winrar also to put the parts together and unzip/unrar it.

You can split up a large file into several parts and also merge back the smaller files to get back the original large file using a file archiver utility like 7-Zip (open source and platform independent freeware ) or WinRAR ( shareware and best archiver). If you can split up a large file into smaller files of desired size, sending them out as email attachments should be a piece of cake. The details are available at usefulcomputertips.biglaunch.net

You could try putting the file in a compressed folder, or use winzip.

What size of attachment is too large?

Most email providers only allow up to 10mb as an attachment. Now, gmail and yahoo supposedly allow up to 25mb. Here's the catch, the recipient must be able to have the same capabilities of send and receiving files that large too. If not, it's a no go. Anything large will have to be handled by a large file transfer website like toobigforemail.com or http://www.send-file.com


How can a file be sent by email?

Solution 1: Zip the file and attach it to your email Solution 2: Use an email attachment sending service. This gets round the problem of large or multiple mp3 files (or any file types for that matter) which you won't be able to send using your usual email system even when zipped as they will be too large for a standard mail server to process (standard limits are between 10 and 20Mb). Email attachment sending services allow you to send an email as normal, they remove the attachment and put it on their servers and your recipient receives your original email message with a link to download the file. This avoids emails bouncing or disappearing because they are too large because the large file sending service deals with the large part of your email- the attachment. There are a variety of services available with a range of maximum file sizes you can send through them.

Why use email to send an attachment to someone when the attachment file can be transmitted using FTP?

FTP/Email FilesFTP is the protocol for exchanging files over the Internet. FTP is most commonly used to download or upload files from or to an internet server. You will need an FTP application and you can download them: Fetch for Macintosh, and for Windows use WinZip or WS_FTP. (These applications usually have a 30-day trial period and then you can decide whether to purchase it or not). FTP is preferred when files get large because they will upload much faster than through email and FTP can handle much larger files.Sending large attachments through email can be problematic. Some corporate email servers do not allow email attachments to guard against possible viruses, or an outgoing server may have a limit on the size of an attachment. Sometimes the limit of an attachment may be as low as a 2 mg file. Therefore, FTP may be the only option to sending your files electronically. FTP is also a much faster way to send files than through email.If your files are especially large, 100 mg or more, it is recommended that you send a CD disk rather than sending files electronically.
