i have been trying to send my friend some mp3s...but whenever i send them through my yahoo account i get a delivery failure notice...no matter what size the file is...i have sent test ones without atrtachements and they go through to her fine...i can also send her attachments from my hotmail account...

problem is some of the mp3s are too large for the limit hotmail allows 10mb...but yahoo allow 25mb

any ideas why this might be happening?

thanks

I have had the laptop formatted and windows xp updated

Wouldn't surprise me if MP3's are a blocked file type.

Use a zip file

Also, yahoo might be 25MB, but what's her limit?

Read the delivery failure, it will tell you exactly what mail server it's from (therefore who's stopping it) and why it's failing.
