Hi,

My girlfriends iBook (OS 10.3.9) generates the following mail error, when she tried to send me 13 jpgs in one mail (2.5MB 640x480 for all pictures)

"5.7.1 Message contained too many MIME parts. We do not accept such complicated messages."

Any explanation for this?

Thanks
John

Either the server or the mail application you are using is quite clear on what the problem is, it does not knwo how to handle so much attachments. Create an archive contaning all the jpg should solve your gf's problem.

Thanks Ludovic.
I should maybe add that she is using a .Mac account with Mail supplied with 10.3.9. I guess mails with 13 attachment shouldn't be any problem, right?
