Outlook XP Large Attachment Problem

Hi

I have two problems which I assume are related:

1. When moving messages from my hotmail inbox to the Outlook inbox, it inevitably bombs if one of the messages has a fairly large attachment (let's say 500k, I'm not sure where the boundary is).

2. When I send messages via Outlook, and I have a large attachment, it seems the attachment gets truncated though there is no message to that effect, and the user at the other end gets a file corrupted message. Works fine if sent via Hotmail directly, though.

Between these two problems, it means I can't log my messages with large attachments...

I should theoretically be able to send messages of up to 1mb. Am on 56k modem if that helps.

Thanks

K
