I tried to send a large video file using outlook express and about half way through my server stops it for reasons unknown, I can live with out sending the file but the problem is now when I open outlook it tries to send it again and when it cant it also returns a failure notice...how can I get this to stop? Is there a way to clean out unsent messages from outlook or something else I can do?
 
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Subject '', Account: '*******@sbcglobal.net', Server: 'smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '451 timeout (#4.4.4)', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 451, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F


This is the message I keep getting after its been uploading for 10 minutes I had no problems with outlook before I tried to send this file...its a mpeg file 16.4Mb if that helps!
 
Help anyone please I cant send or recieve mail because it keeps trying to send the message I attached the file too!
 
Hmm ... i suggest that you don't use outlook express because if there is any interuption ebtween you and the server it'll cut off and tell you to send it again, which is not very helpful especially if your send such a large file
Do you have dial up or broadband ?
 
I have dsl I mostly use yahoo mail for sending and recieving files but they have a limit on how big of file you can attach thats why I tried outlook, the problem is that I use my outlook for work and other things so I need to corect this asap because I cant send or recieve mail until it sends this message that is too big to send, is there a way to cancle it and clean out all unsent messages?

Hmm .. sry i can't help you because i don't use outlook express at all, i use hotmail
Shouldn't there be unsent messages tab on the menu thing on the left?
 
The limit on the attachments isn't gone because you use an e-mail client. Outlook simply sends the file up to your e-mail server, yahoo, and sends it away. No matter how you try to send it, you have an attachment cap of Xmb.
 
Thanx people I found the outbox and was able to delete the file now everything works fine...is there an email that I can use to send real large files?
 
just winzip or winrarf it and there is a function to split it into 3mb files... then the person can rejoin them on the other side.
 
What about some other kind of progam to compress the video file and the person on the recieving end could inflate it...what I want to do is be able to email full movies!
