catmommy4 Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 How do you email a .exe with outlook express Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidKnight Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 as an attachment, but you will probably find now that a lot of users have this type of attachment blocked, so your best bet is to either zip it, or rar it (winzip, or winrar), unless of course you know the reciever will be able to recieve .exe files Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRR Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 another option is to change the file extension "exe" to something else; the recipient is told to change it back to "exe" once he has filed it in his computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxig Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 .... and if the exe is a pte show, better you split it and send small files.You can use the free "Gsplit" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Cox Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 catmommy4from one of my earlier answersnormal email attachment size is < 4mb -- due to the way a mail program functions it adds "overhead" so the resulting email and file is likely close to 5.5 mbso if you have an exe in a zip > than 4 mb it will not likely be sent -- it depends on your isp's leniencyken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
