1. How to Send

Use a File-Transfer SiteInstead of relying on email, you can turn to a third-party file transfer website. Upload the file you wish to send and enter your name and email address along with the name and address of your recipient. The site houses the file online and sends your recipient a download link. How large can the file be? That depends on the service, and what you're willing to pay.
