Split large files using winrar and use a GMAIL account (1 gig). When you receive them just extract back to original directory structure

You mean Exchange STORAGE limit, or email sending limit? I'm often involved with setting limits on mailboxes for my customers. The reason is always due to having a finite amount of storage available, so they just set a limit, rather than have to buy a new hdd. If it's sending limit, it doesn't really matter too much. Exchange can be set to hold mail over a certain size & send at specific times of day (like at night). However any sent mail is going to have to be below the storage limit size.
