Just because something is quick and easy doesn't make it a good idea.
You might refer your users with large files to
http://www.yousendit.com or a similar file-transfer service.
how about everyone get off the soapbox please. he didn't ask whether
y'all thought it was "right" or "wrong" or "good" or "bad" to do what
he's doing, and it really isn't anyone's business but his. He's
serving a customer - i guess this is just classic, stereotypical
'customers are idiots, and always wrong' IT mentality coming through.
if he wants to offer to his customers the ability to send large
messages via email, then that's between him and his customers, not
the peanut gallery. if you have something helpful to add, like a
possible solution to the issue, then by all means, do so.
