I never used to have this problem. I could send multiple pictures to someone else on a BB connection and have sent as much as 20 MB in one Email before.

Now, I worry if I'm trying to send more than 2 MB as OE then insists on breaking the file into smaller portions and then not reintegrating them at the other end!

Is this one of Micro$ofts new helpful updates or is there some setting that I have inadvertently changed to cause this?

Any help would be appreciated. I have posted this problem on other fora and will post the solution here if it's answered somewhere else first.

I suppose I could also dig out my reference materials and do more research myself ...

... the race is on!

Not that im aware off, if im correctOE should be able to hadle it, but normally the mailserver i use doesnt, hence i go gmail

Spock, open the accounts window (under Tools in OE I think) select your email server account, and open its properties. Under the advanced tab there should be a "Sending" section, I think there is a box there that says something like "Break apart long emails into seperate sections" which may be ticked. Hope this helps, if its not that I have no idea whats happening.

Fascinating. I have multiple accounts and the one I use the most had that option ticked but none of the others did. I will now have to send myself a large email to test it.

Thanks! It's always the obvious isn't it?

Just glad (and suprised) I could help. I've had so many problems with OE. When I first used it I couldn't get it to send and receive, and it took me a week to work out how to set up a filter to block an email address.

We all have to start somewhere. That's pretty much what this site is all about though, isn't it?
