Notes

The maximum size for a file attachment you can send to another AOL member is 15 MB.

The maximum size for a file attachment you can send to an Internet address is 2 MB.

The recipient must have software that is compatible with your file(s). For example, if you send someone a WordPerfect file, your recipient must have either WordPerfect or a word processing program capable of opening WordPerfect files. Also make sure the file is compatible with your recipient’s computer; a Macintosh machine may not be able to read some Windows files, and vice versa.
