When I send a picture eg: file size of 3.3Mb, either to myself or to anywhere else, the recipient size is only 36.6 KB. How do I send a file that retains its size? Using Mac OS X version 10.6.8, Mail version 4.5. Hi, I have the opposite problem.

But several times we get a response from the person we've sent the folder to that they can't "open" the zip document. Can some (I'm assuming) PC's NOT unzip? Or do these people just not know where the file is being downloaded to? If you're not trying to compress the files any more can you, say, put 5 pdf files in a folder and just attach the folder - and then the problem goes away? Thanks Larry Hi, We do this all the time.

Better off getting dropbox or some similar thing and uploading them. To email you need to break it up into small batches, keep each individual zip file under 10MB.
