Do you want to send large e-mails?

Posted in: Software | June 18th, 2010

Sometimes we need to send large e-mails.  (e-mails with large attachments). There are many ways to do it, actually. You can put the attachment to your website using FTP and give the link to receipt to download it.

However, it seems like a lot of work for sending a file. What if you do not have a website where you could put the file?

There is a good way to send large e-mails. Just go to You Send It.   This service allows you to e-mail up to a 100MB file for free!
How it works?
1. You send your large file by uploading it through a web browser, from your desktop or right from within your favorite application such as Microsoft Outlook.
2. They (You Send It) store your file securely and email your recipient a link to click on and download the file.
3. Your recipient receives the email notification, clicks on the link in the email and downloads the file.  Easy!

Actually, you can send up to 2GB if needed for a fee.  It’s a great service and an especially great way to share pictures, videos, and more.
To do this you do not have to call Computer Tech Support!
