I would like to know if we can send zip file that exists another zip file and other file types inside of it as an attachment in mail.
- use Big zip forge to create zip file that send as an attachment when sent mail
-sometimes experience all files do not contain in attached zip file and sometimes experience mail is not received by user( send status show in Service Studio's mail log and can download from it)
-I also would like to know maximum size of an email that can be sent smoothly
thanks
Hello Thet,
If the email is in OutSystems logs then it has been sent. However, email services generally have limits on the size of attachments. For example, Gmail's maximum email size, which includes attachments is 50MB, and Office365's maximum received email size is 150MB. You will find that organisations with their own emails servers will have lower limits, 10MB used to be common, now 20MB and 30MB is more common.
Also a 10MB attachment will become 13.3 MB as an attachment because it is base64 encoded in the raw email message.
If you are sending attachments larger than 10MB I would recommend an alternative approach of sending a link where the receiver can download it, possibly after logging in first. However, I understand that may not be an option for you.
I'm not sure why some files are not contained in your zip file. Zip is quite reliable; you could have a bug in your code, or there could be a bug in big zip.
I hope this helps!
Kind regards,
Stuart
