The limit on the size of an email is 2MB as a standard. Photo's above this need sending via a dropbox or by attaching to multiple emails.

The maximum size of an email message you can send from Sky Yahoo Mail is 25MB including attachments.

@caesarome 

 

Thank you for correcting me and the size of an email but the actual size is defined in the handshake of the sending & receiving SMTP email server when it responds during the negotiation EHLO with a SIZE and I incorrectly defined it as 2MB!

 

And I just checked the handshake on my own email server SMTP connection and most are set at 50MB for SMTP exchange these days, but it can sometimes be less on receiving SMTP server in the case of Yahoo and other email servers.

 

Yahoo is actually 40MB (taken from EHLO of yahoo.com 250-SIZE 41943040).
