Is it possible to somehow email files >10mb? Im a college student and have to create powerpoint presentations for my business classes and a lot of the times the files end up being too big to send. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Get yourself a Gmail account, you can send attachments up to 20MB.

You do not need an invitation anymore as well...

Different email hosts have limits on how much you can send. Usually its decided by the hosting provider.

One option would be to either split the file into parts with something like Winrar.

Or to upload the whole file to a website where you can download it later. There are a few free hosting websites which have around a 100MB limit.

Try FILEminimizer office.. Compressing files doesn't change the file format like zipping would and it ensures that you'll be able to send your attachment without having to worry about maxing out your recipients inbox storage.

FILEminimizer Office 5.0 in Compression Tools - Summary <-- You should be able to get a free trial from there.
