Is there a file size limit that Outlook will upload

[Jerry]

I can send small size files in outlook like 100 kb. However, as hard as I
try, I cannot get anything large to upload ... like 50 meg, etc. Any help
here would be appreciated

Your mail server is probably restricting your sending size. Check with
your mail administrator or ISP.

Your ISP may have a limit, or if you have anti virus scanning intergrated
with outlook this can cause problems.
Presumably the mail is stuck in the outbox?

Thanks for all the advice. I can see I need to check with my ISP. Must be a
different thing when it comes to downloading. I recently downloaded a large
copy of WP X4 from Corel without any problem. That is why I was concerned
about my inability to upload a similar but smaller zipped file.

Thanks again.

I doubt your ISP can do anything to increase your mail transfer limit but
call them anyway.

It sure is.

SMTP (email) limit has nothing to do with your ability to download data
(through HTTP or FTP).

That is why I was concerned about my inability to upload a similar but
smaller zipped file.

Once again, upload or download (over http or ftp) has nothing to do with
mail limit.

Thanks for the education. Although working with computers, software and
hardware a long time, I am limited in my general knowledge of this area.
Appreciated your comments
