How to send large files via yahoo mail

The good old days of Yahoo Mail! While Yahoo Mail has its limitations, you can still send large files via Yahoo Mail using a few workarounds. Here are some methods to help you send large files:

Method 1: Use Yahoo Mail's built-in file attachment limit workaround

Yahoo Mail has a file attachment limit of 25MB per email. To send larger files, you can break them down into smaller chunks and attach each chunk separately. Here's how:

  1. Divide your large file into smaller chunks (e.g., 25MB each).
  2. Attach each chunk to a separate email.
  3. Send the emails separately, making sure to keep track of the file chunks.

Method 2: Use a file compression tool

Compressing your file can reduce its size, making it easier to send via Yahoo Mail. You can use a file compression tool like WinZip, 7-Zip, or online tools like SmallPDF or FileZigZag.

  1. Compress your file using a compression tool.
  2. Attach the compressed file to your Yahoo Mail email.
  3. The recipient can decompress the file using the same tool.

Method 3: Use a file sharing service

Services like WeTransfer, Dropbox, or Google Drive allow you to send large files by uploading them to their servers and sharing the link with the recipient.

  1. Upload your file to the file sharing service.
  2. Share the link with the recipient via Yahoo Mail or another email service.
  3. The recipient can download the file from the shared link.

Method 4: Use a third-party email service

Some email services, like Gmail or Outlook, have larger file attachment limits than Yahoo Mail. You can use these services to send large files and then forward the email to the recipient.

  1. Create a new email account with a service that has a larger file attachment limit (e.g., Gmail or Outlook).
  2. Attach your large file to the email.
  3. Send the email to the recipient.
  4. Forward the email to the recipient's Yahoo Mail address.

Remember to always check the file size limits and any potential issues with file types or formats before sending large files via Yahoo Mail or any other email service.
