Personally I wouldn't trust any mail system with that size of
attachment.

OK.  So Evo is sending it correctly.

That's not what I meant.  If you send it to yourself - i.e put your own
address in the To: header - the mail will eventually appear in your
INBOX (as well as the sent folder) - can you then read the message OK in
your INBOX?

I mean when sending the message - is there something that says something
like "Error appending message to Sent Folder"?
