There is a 2 meg limit to mail across the whole interet. This of course doesnt
apply to Intra-nets which are basically in-house networks with outside
connections. You can send any size in-house but only up to 2 meg going to
another site.

If you are scanning for sending out or to put on a web page scan it at 72 DPI.
That will work for most monitors. It will not print pretty but it will be
legible. Also constrain your file size, this will help. There are also 3rd party
programs out there that can resize/reformat the file to more easily handled
sizes.
