If a user wants to send a DVD per e-mail, what's the difference in 
sending it at once, or splitting it up in N parts, to fulfill whatever 
a single mail size restriction is? 

Big files are for sure less problematic than small ones, e.g. for big 
files you can skip SPAM processing. It's just one connection which is 
open a little bit longer, and it's only about copying bytes. No real 
processing power required for that.

If you'd tell me that *mail clients* have problem with big files, I 
agree.
