Can I get some feedback / thoughts on large email attachments? Besides the
fact that the user usually gets impatient and thinks the mail system is
broke while a 10MB file is being attached and sent, do they eat up mail
server CPU cycles; are they Ram intensive? I have a small number of email
users, the majority on a decent sized connection not dialup, and some need
to send large attachments. I understand that email is not the best way to
transport large files, but I don't want to get into creating ftp sites and
educating a user on how to do it. They'll just complain that they already
have email, why can't they use it. I already limit their individual
mailboxes to 10Mbs and set their client to download locally. I intend to
test with Perf Mon this week to see network reactions.....
Of course, if I do give them FTP, I get to charge for it.....
