File size is too large to send in e-mail

^{File size is too large to send in e-mail}

The movie cannot be sent in an e-mail message because it is too large. Many e-mail providers place a file size limit on e-mail message attachments.

To fix this problem, do one or more of the following:

• Use the spin control to increase the file size limit for an e-mail attachment. Use this if your e-mail provider does not place file size limits on e-mail attachments.
• Close the Save Movie Wizard, on the Tools menu, click Options, click the Advanced tab, and then increase the maximum file size for e-mail attachments. Restart the Save Movie Wizard and then try sending your movie as an e-mail attachment again.
• Reduce the length of your movie by removing items from the storyboard/timeline in Windows Movie Maker.
