Jeez, I've just spent all day putting together a spangly powerpoint presentation and realised I have no media on which to record it whatsoever, so I send an email to myself with the presentation attatched so that I can open it at work and use it. APART FROM THERE IS A FRIGGING LAG and none of my emails are landing in their inboxes. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

fancy a gmail account? It'll send 10Meg and my PP stuff only takes seconds to come back through.

i have never come across a lag on hotmail, but as it has been posted above there might well be one for large attachments. normal emails arrive within a matter of seconds.

Probably a stupid question, but are you sure you got the address right?
