Largest Permissible Email Attachment?

Thank you.

I sent an email of 300Kb which was bounced back with the message "permanent error"!?

An email cannot be any larger than 25MB, which includes headers, body, and attachments.

I'm curious-------if you send the same email without the attachment, does it still bounce?  Are you getting any error code with the "permanent error" message?

Here is one attachment from the returned email: (i xxx out the recipient's name)

That error code indicates Google doesn't like something about your message.  It may be the link itself.  I found similar conversations with people using other email providers too------------------

Than you!

Glad to see that it was not a problem on my end.
