Share Large Files Without Email | Rune

Email attachments have limits. When your file is too large, File Share provides an alternative that's faster and more convenient.

Email Attachment Limits

Provider	Limit
Gmail	25 MB
Outlook	20 MB
Yahoo	25 MB
Corporate	Often 10-20 MB

Files over these limits simply won't send.

File Share Limits

• Guest users: 100 MB
• Logged-in users: 1 GB

That's 40x larger than most email limits.
