I've never heard of that before. I know some service providers ho*t*mail and ya* hoo to name a few limit the size of attachments a person can recieve do it may be that the images are too large Zoe

Shan I was online when you sent yours earlier. If it's of any use the file you sent me was bigger than the one that Jools sent. So perhaps Zoe has the answer Jeanette

shan I work on the picture desk of a newspaper so spend all day emailing images backwards and forwards to people and have never hear of this as a problem. if you'd like to send the image to me I will reduce the size for you and send it back and you can try again in case it is just a problem with the file size zoelinkson AT ya hoo (.)co(.)uk remove brackets and spaces and put a sign for the at

shan whats the last bit on the email address you're sending to e.g. blue yonder or ya hoo?? Its possibly that the person has reached their mailbox limit and until they delete the email you got through earlier then their provider will just keep rejecting all new mail

ZOE!!!! you star, you just answered my ?? Just got a new pc, when i go to mail an image it asks if i want to reduce the size because it wont take as long and take up so much memory, i say no, but the one i mailed this am i said yes and it went through. Maybe that's it Thank's Shan
