The next task will be ftp to user folder. But > first tasks is how to using python send huge files. Most SMTP servers are configured not to accept attachments bigger than 10 or 15MB. In general, you should never send emails with >5MB attachments. Not because it is not possible, but because it is unreliable, and the solution is never in your hand. The solution depends on the SMTP server configuration, and in most cases you don't have access to the computers holding the final destination of the emails. If you still don't want to accept this suggestion, then go ahead! Write a program, send out 100MB emails, and you will see for yourself that it just doesn't work.
