The attachment size exceeds the allowable limit
If Microsoft Outlook gives the error “the attachment size exceeds the allowable limit”. You can place the following in a notepad document -
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Preferences]
“MaximumAttachmentSize”=dword:00100000
change 100000 which is = 100 mb to what ever number you want -
Example 30 mb would be 030000
save the document as outlook.reg (not as a txt file – use the all files option when saving)
Double click on it. This will make a registry entry and allow outlook to attach larger files. This does not mean that your provider will allow this size. Check with your provider to see the maximum size.
