why cant we send videos through text/email?

I found another setting that will help. I'm using Handcent, so your mileage may very. In Handcent's settings find maximum MMS size, and change it to 1meg. Default is 300 k. Helped out a lot!

That should read videos. Onscreen keyboard + autofinish oops

Just wondering if you take a video in the highest quality setting, not thinking of sending it via MMS, but then decided you wanted to send it. Is there a way to compress/downgrade it for that purpose. Or is there an app to help out in that way?

You can use Android SendIT ... I found it in the market I searched for email video I think it was the 2nd one down ... but it lets you send any sized video to anyones email address

It worked perfect for me ...

i use k9 when i need to send videos, i dont think it has a size limit.

Email size limitations have absolutely NOTHING to do with the mail client and everything to do with the mail server (both for sending the message and for receiving the message). Most places have a limit of 10 Mb of size on the message, however, Gmail's is apparently a bit larger than that: Maximum attachment size - Gmail Help

However, this thread is for sending text messages anyways, not email.
