It is very important to know the Maximum Attachment Size for email. A common mistake email users make: They want an email hosting service that supports sending the largest attachment possible. However, they forget that equally important is the email recipient’s maximum attachment limit. If the recipient’s server cannot accept large email attachments, your email cannot get through as well. Let us find out what are the maximum attachment sizes for various email providers.

Keep your email attachment size below 20MB
GMail is the most popular free email service that has the greatest market share. Hence, you are likely to be sending emails to GMail user more frequently than the other email users. Since GMail has an attachment limit of 25MB, ideally, you should always keep your email attachment size below 20MB. This ensures your email will 100% get to the recipient’s Inbox.
Send large, unlimited & maximum attachment size in email
To bypass the email attachment limits imposed by various email providers, the best way is to share your files with cloud drive. GMail users should be very familiar with sending large attachment via Google Drive. Similarly, Dropbox users can also paste the share link into their emails.
