Windows 7 email problem

[tom stamey]

I have had windows 7 for a month with no email problems. Now all of a sudden the email refuses to send a email with a picture from "my pictures" attached. How can this be fixed? I have tried reloading my upgrade to windows 7 from Vista again but it did not do any good.

What e-mail program are you using? Windows 7 does not come with a built-in e-mail client.

windows live mail

Have you cleaned up your mailbox, or are you at your quota? There may not be room to move more [large] messages into your Sent folder. Make sure that Send and/or Trash are cleaned out.

I regulary delete email after receiving them other than about 8 i keep in the stored messages box.

Yes, but what about things you've SENT?

 

[tom stamey]

sent items are regulary deleted. Believe me, my mail is NOT overloaded.

What exactly happens when you try to send the e-mail? Do you get an immediate error message? If so, what does it say? Or do you get a response e-mail from the server saying that the mail couldn't be delivered?

error message:
Delete photo email, create another and try again.
error Ox8cccD03F

Hmmm. I'm wondering if:

- this photo might be larger than some configuration limit?
- the photo is open in another program?

Other than that, I don't use Windows Live Mail so I'm not sure I can be of any more help...
