    How many attachments can I add to an email message?

    Hi Folks!

    Got a new computer a couple of weeks ago. I'm used to using Outlook Express on WinXP

    The new machine runs Windows Live Mail on Windows 7.

    How many file attachments can I add to a single email message? The attachments are small Excel files usually less than 30kb each.

    I have about 100 files I need to send out all to the same address and I don't want to send out 100 emails with 1 attachment each!

    how about if you zip them all together and send them all as 1?

    I think its more to do with what the mail server will allow size-wise, more than qty-wise
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    It worked out OK.

    I actually had 112 files and to be safe I made 4 zipped folders and sent them out in 4 emails.
