Hi there @numbersage

 

I’d be happy to help with your file sending! The best way to tackle this depends on the device that is being used. For example, if using a smartphone there are a number of apps and services which can be used to first upload the file, and then simply include a link to the file in the email which can then be downloaded. Our very own AT&T Locker is a great way to share large files, with 5GB of free storage space.

 

Should you be using a basic phone, the best way to transfer such a large file may be via USB or SD card as most email providers have a cap of around 25MB for attachments.

 

Thanks!
