Gmail and Yahoo Mail faulty on Safari?

[Peter Griffin]

I've been trying to send 500 kb attachments and they never seem to be getting across. Is this because of the internet browser? I'm on high speed broadband btw so speed is not an issue.

EDIT

I should also add that everythings fine when I type regular text messages. It's just these attachments that don't seem to 'attach'.

Safari works fine for sending attachments (500 kB and greater) through both GMail and Yahoo Mail for me.

I'll let you know next time. I don't understand what's screwing up. Is it not letting you attach the.....erm....."attachment"......or is your recipient just not getting it?

I always use Mail.app, so I can't answer your question

Have you tried testing any Baby Stewie sized, ahem, smaller attachments? Just to see if it's an issue related to file size or to uploading in general?

I ended up using MSN Messenger because of the time contraints. For some reason though, I was never able to send attachments over 300 kb.

And yes Mkrishnan, the baby stewie sizes seemed to work just fine.

I've sent up to 2 MB attachments via GMail... in Safari... no issues.

Reset your cache maybe?

There used to be some issues with Safari and timing out too early... this little modification was released:

But supposedly, it has not been necessary since 10.3.6...
