attachments

I'm using outlook express and have been able to send attachments in the past.
Now when I send jpgs it sends 12-20 times and I get error message, "too many
messages on a single connection; couldn't be split into smaller parts" - and
14 other bullet points. why would I have this problem all of a sudden?

Depends on your Email server. Some ISPs limit the size of email sent.

My ISP hasn't changed over the last year and haven't had the issue before. Would this have anything to do w/ XP Service Pack 2 - which I can't get installed!

I doubt that XP SP2 has anything to do with it.

Thanks - the size I'm trying to send is only 680kb so I really don't think it's the file size. Time for Geek Squad?

worked w/ Comcast and found some settings that had changed and a box that was checked that said "break apart messages over.." Problem solved.
