Why does it take so long to attach .jpeg files to a letter?

Maybe the file's too big? Or your computer might also have viruses or something.

A lot.  Especially if they're just text.  If each email were around 4 kilobytes (which would be like six long-ish paragraphs) then it'd take 262144 emails to make a gigabyte of emails.  Attatchments will change that, though.  It'd take 4096 256 kb images, or 256 4 mb music files to fill up a gb.

If its in an email that you can't see it, then try opening the attachment seperately - have experienced that before - not sure why (only with some jpegs), otherwise... not sure... sorry!

yes. Im also facing this problem when I receive mails with Embedded images.\n\nIn such a case, ask the sender to resend the images as atatched files and not as Embedded images as yahoo doen't support that sometimes.

if you want to pass a file that you are working on to someone that is multi-layyered   it would be saved   .psd    it the picture is done then there is no reason to send it .psd   flaten it and send it as .gif or jpg\n.jpg is my favorite

You would be able to if you leave it download for long enough, don't open the attachment directly but save it first then open it, a 4000kb can take like over 10 minutes to download, so you have to be patient.

Sorry man.  My ideas of file tranfering are to slow in their processes even with a high speed cable connection it would take me hours.

If you have the latest Yahoo Photo Mail facility, it simply amounts to 'drag and drop' from your PC's files, or CDs, to the e-mail in which you wish to attach them.\nIf you do not have photo Mail, you will have to attach them in the traditional Yahoo way - of browsing for 1 pic at a time and selecting it, before browsing for the next one, and so on, plus finally 'upload'ing the lot !\nEither way, you can send upto 10 MB of pics, with 1 mail. So, try convert large hi-resolution pics into smaller 'jpg' or 'tiff' formats - and send.\n[I have once sent 32 pics along with 1 mail, and still had more than 4 MB to spare.]\nBest 'o Luck !

If you are using Outlook, here's a workaround to your problem.  First of all, make sure your e-mail is in HTML format.  Secondly, make sure the image is a .gif or .jpg.  Thirdly, save the .gif or .jpg on  your hard drive and then open it with a browser, such as internet explorer.  Then right-click "copy" and then "paste" into e-mail.  A pain I know.

Convert your photographs to JPG/JPEG format. That will reduce the size. Send only few pictures in each email. If you are still not able to send them, thrash your internet service provider for poor speed.

it depends on the servers the sender & receiver are using and how large the file is.  usually under 5 minutes.

Which mail service are you using? May be the size of the file is too big or the mail service may not be supporting the file type.

If you wrote air mail on it, it should take up to a week, sometimes even 3-4 days. If not, it can take up to 2, maybe 3 weeks.

Have you heard www.yousendit.com? This one is free if you send a file up to 100 MB.\n\nSo the way it works is you actually upload the file to yousendit.com server and stays there for a week. A link will be emailed to the sender and recipient(s) to retrieve the file later.\n\nConvenience, isn't it?\n\nIf the size of your scanned file is way bigger than 100MB, you can check the following:\n\n1. Does the scanned doc need to be in color? Black and white output certainly reduce the file size\n\n2. If your scanner comes with utility software, use it. Some of them might have options such as output to be emailed, to be faxed, etc. which definetely will reduce file size\n\n3. Also some software might have option to choose whether you want to scan it at 150 dpi or higher (dpi = dot per inchi). The higher the dpi is, the smoother the quality of the output and the bigger the file size will be\n\n4. Finally, you want to make sure that the final output is saved as pdf or jpeg. Normally, the output is in form of TIFF format. This file type doesn't have compression method as good as pdf or jpeg/jpg\n\nFor creating PDF, you need to have Acrobat, not Acrobat reader.\n\nTo convert TIFF to JPEG, you can open it with Windows Paintbrush, and save it as JPEG. You will suprise how much file size has shrunk.\n\nHope it helps...

Maybe you have an firewall/antivirus that blocks the attachments, just try to disable this option from them in their option page\nHope this helps
