I notice I've been sending emails upwards near 20MB lately without much fuss. Sometimes it's a matter of the recipient; their (older?) system rejects the message (but I don't find out about it until the next day or so). I've taken to using YouSendIt for just about anything over 10 or 15 MB just to be on the safe side. And yeah, I know I can dropbox it with a link, but YouSendIt is a little more seamless via their app. I generally like it.
But it got me wondering, is there a standard cap these days? Ages ago, I remember being told at a company I worked at to keep it under 5MB, then later 10MB. And, like I said, I've been sending/receiving emails in the 20MB range lately.
