The Arlington/Roe & Co. mail servers impose a limit to large file size emails.

This limit is intended to discourage the use of large attachments over email. The limit was chosen to allow small documents to be transferred over email without difficulty, but to prevent messages large enough to cause mail system problems.

Email is a very inefficient way of transferring large files. If you receive a rejection message stating that your email has exceeded the maximum allowable size, you must decrease the file size of your email message in order for it to be sent successfully.

Here are a few suggestions to consider when emailing files:

1. Keep the attachment as small as possible, using compression software where possible.
2. If you are sending many files, try splitting them up into smaller emails. This will reduce the impact of sending one large email.
3. If you are unable to successfully send email with an attachment due to the file size, you may fax us at 317-554-8551.
4. Most Internet Service Providers (ISP) impose their own limits. You may receive errors from your own ISP.
