About File Sizes

• Files can become large in size and can cause issues with sending emails or saving to our networks drives (P or M).
• Pages of a document do not determine the size of a file. The contents and image quality increases this.

 

Important Notes:

• If you attach files that have a combined total of more than 20 MBs, the email will not be sent.
• IT strongly recommends to use Mimecast Large File Send if sending multiple attachments to avoid bounce backs.

File Size Chart

Name of Size	Size in KB
Kilobyte (KB)	1 KB
Megabyte (MB)	1,000 KB
Gigabyte (GB)	1,000,000 KB

In Example:

• If you have a document that is 2,000 KB in size, this would be 2 MB in size.
• If you have a document that is 22,000 KB in size, this would be 22 MB in size and too large for emails when attached. Use Mimecast Large File Send.
