    You could upload it to Photobucket which will give you a link to the video that you can send in an email?

    Only to suffer a decrease in quality ansd possible buffering problems on a slow connection.

    Maybe better to use a file sharing site, such as Badongo, which in addition, gives the download option.

    Use FTP software and an FTP site, or burn it to CD and post it. You can't send 455MB by email!
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Most ISP's limit you to 1MB or maybe at a max 10MB attachments. Not 455MB.
