Most ISP's won't allow you to send an attachment that big. Most limit the
size to 10 meg or less.

Hi Frank,
I just went back to tools, unchecked break apart, turned off the computer,
re-started and sent another message with a photoshop image attachment and
received an error message from Symantec "unable to be sent because message
exceeded maximum size of 552". Not a direct quote, but close enough. BTW
this
file is 15 megs. I do not have problems sending JPEGs. Suggestions?

Steve,
I turned off both incoming and outgoing email scanning, sent a
message with photo attachment to myself and got the same
results...i.e. ten copies of the message, unable to open it and a
considerable amount of frustration.
Any other possibilities? Thanks much in adance.

Its Symantec that is likely the problem. You need to turn off email
scanning. See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

When sending an email with a photo attachment to myself I get an
error message, "unknown file type" and can not open the photograph.
In addition, I
am sent at least a dozen copies of the same email and error message
at which
point I also get an error message from Symantec which reads, " Your
email message was unable to be sent because your mail server
recjected the sender."
(1003,7).
I am able to send text attachments with no trouble but really do
need to fix
OE so that I can send graphics too. I need help in simple to follow
step-by-step non technical language. Can anyone help please?
Thanks much. --

Thanks Ricky for your correct response to the problem. I had just checked
with my ISP and they confirmed they didn't want anything larger than 7.5 megs.

Cheers

Looks like it was a server message from trying to send a huge message,
rather than something local.

I had the break apart option originally checked for 2000 kb.
Unchecking it and sending a photo resulted in 83 error messages from
Symantec indicating the file was too large to send. Any other
possibilities?

- Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Advanced uncheck the break apart
option

With that option enabled large messages are broken into smaller
messages. Each message has part of the attachment. That will
confuse anti-virus for scanning the attachment. It will also appear
to your ISP that you are sending many messages and they apparently
have a limit on the number of messages at a time as a spam control
effort.

I don't think that message is from Norton. It's from Four ISP.

Yeah. I was thrown by OP's continual mention of Symantec.
