And breathe… the “file too large to send” problem is over

And breathe… the “file too large to send” problem is over

How many times have you been in the middle of an urgent email, attaching a critical file, only to be met with the dreaded notification – “file too large to send”?

Frustrating, isn’t it?

Well, Microsoft has heard our collective sighs of exasperation. They’ve announced an update that promises to banish the ‘file too large’ issue once and for all.

And this is one of those rare times where something that feels too good to be true is actually true!

In an official post on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant’s revealed its plan to integrate Outlook with Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud storage platform.

It means when you hit that attachment size limit, Outlook will ask you to upload your file to OneDrive, so your document still reaches the intended recipient.

Clever, don’t you think?

Android devices get this new feature first, but for everyone else, the rollout is due this month. We don’t have long to wait.

Soon you’ll no longer need to compress, resize, or even abandon your large files. Or turn to third-party services (which can be a security risk). Microsoft’s paving the way for a smoother, more efficient email experience.

If you’d like a hand getting more from your Microsoft 365 subscription, get in touch.

May I take this opportunity in thanking you for your prompt action in dealing with our hardware problem last week. We were in jeopardy of not being able to pay some clients employees at the end of last month and although we needed to work additional hours we fulfilled our deadlines on time.

You don’t know how good it is not having SPAM arriving every 3 minutes! I’ve received no SPAM since 4pm yesterday ... nothing in my Inbox, Junk Mail folder or caught by the SPAM controls within Exchange. Perfect!

Having benefitted from Infinity’s support since 2013, we remain impressed with their technical ability and focused approach to keeping our IT systems updated and working as they should. After using a larger IT support company we chose Infinity because of their size, with them being big enough to cope, but small enough to care. We made the right choice - the quality of their service has always been excellent, and we’ve come to regard them as part of the team.

Unfortunately our business suffered a ransomware attack however thanks to Infinity’s support we were able to get by with minimal downtime. Rob and the team worked tirelessly throughout Friday and Monday and over the weekend to ensure we weren’t left negatively affected by the event. We were very glad for the great back ups and systems that we had invested in thanks to Infinity’s past recommendations.
