Webhost that handles large e-mail attachments needed

[emkay90]

Hello - I'm looking for some suggestions on a web host that will accomodate my clients need to attach large files in their e-mails. I've used Crystal Tech very successfully in the past, but they only allow 10MB max for e-mail attachements. The requirements I have are:

Minimum 20MB attachment
ASP support
MYSQL and MS Access Support
e-Commerce: must support integration w/Authorize.net
Shared SSL
Good control panel

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

You should be able to find 50Mb but anything higher to be honest will be hard to find. The reason for this is the fact 50Mb is the out the box default mailbox size for a redhat install. I know youve said windows hosting but admins follow each other.

Sending 50Mb via email is nasty, why not break the email attachments to give the receiver a chance.

2Mb split

tar -cvlf - / | split -a 2 -b 2000m - /xyz/big_file.tar

Merge back

cat big_file.tar* | tar -tvf


good luck

Thanks for the help! I think the client does realize the size limitation and have been using their webhost FTP for anything larger than 30MB. So, I would say that 30MB would be the max we would need. My major concern is looking for someone who is reputable.

If your looking for a reputable email provider. The client might like to go for a dedicated, allowing any config you wish. Email the size of houses if you wish and the price of servers have dropped though the floor making this a real option.
theplanet, UK2 to name just a few of the thousands, if your only using the server for email Linux would be cheaper. This would also keep the web & email on the best options for your needs at a low price.
