Attachments to email messages can come in many forms: documents, sound files, videos, pictures, programs (some of which may do harm to your computer) and more. The importance of attachments allow email users to send along a referenced document for review and improvement. Attachments to email messages can vary in sizes and some servers and accounts have permissions established that control exactly how large attachments can be to email messages. Attachments can suck up quite a bit of bandwith sending and receiving and then they have to be stored somewhere, too. A word of advice, never open an email attachment from an unknown source. At the very least, have virus protection with the most current definitions in place to scan them before downloading them onto your computer. The most dangerous files are those ending in .exe (executable files), which go right to work installing themselves with a simple double-click. Happy emailing! Sending pictures, documents, encrypting data for secure transmission, some businesses use it to order product.

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.
