Windows 7 doesn't come with an e-mail client. Nope, not one e-mail
program. You have to install one. Are to guess that your *e-mail*
client is the same program used as your *newsreader* client?

Did you yet find out what is the anti-abuse quotas at whomever is your
UNIDENTIFIED e-mail provider regarding the maximum size you can send for
an e-mail? The size of the original file that you attach is irrelevant.
All e-mail, and I mean all of it, gets sent as plain text. HTML is
text. RTF is text with a .dat attachment. Attachments are encoded into
long text strings in MIME sections within the body of your message.
It's all text. That encoding into text of an attachment will bloat the
size of the attached content by 137%, or far more. Save a draft of your
e-mail and then look in the Drafts folder under the Size column to see
what will be the actual size of your e-mail when you send it. Then
consider if it is under the max-size-per-message anti-abuse quota at
your unidentified e-mail provider.
