Send Large File Attachments Right From Outlook

Posted in:

As a general rule, mail servers don't like large file attachments. While some can accommodate files as large as 20MB, others balk if they exceed just 5MB. In these days of mammoth videos, photo libraries, PDFs, and the like, that just doesn't cut it. Thankfully, one of our favorite file-sharing services, drop.io, just announced an Outlook plug-in that lets you send attachments as large as 100MB -- without ever leaving the program. Take a look: Awesome, no? If this sounds a bit familiar, it's because drop.io recently added similar integration to Yahoo Mail. For what it's worth, file-sharing competitor YouSendIt has had its own Outlook plug-in for well over a year. Of course, non-Outlook users can tap either service (and countless others) directly to share big files.
