Slow e-mail

Can anybody help me pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee
I am trying to send attachments to people but it takes just so longggggggggg and then errors out.
I am using talktalk which is driving me mad as evertime I call them I either can't hear them because the line is so bad or I get cut off!
We are trying to save money by combining out tel and braudband together but maybe I have made a big mistake??
We have only been with talk talk for about 4 months
Any comments would really help me.
Also are there any programmes that I can use to speed things up or what!

How big are the attachments? There are size limits.

Why not try to send it through the talktalk website as opposed to outlook., might help
Thats assuming it is a talktalk email address you have

does that mean I have to send every e-mail attachment through here as I tend to send a few.
I would really like to stick to Outlook express is that not possible?
Do you think it's a talk talk problem

Hi ive had this problem with talktalk sometimes through outlook and it usually clears itself, im using outlook now with no problems, could it be that a large file is slowing it down maybe

Hi
I spoke to talktalk about this finally and they said it's nothing to do with them speak to microsoft!
Have now resorted to sending files on disc as can't seem to get a straight answer!!
Thanks for all the help though

Hi
Ok please help me!!
I have been sending e-mails using talktlak but for some reason it won't let me know.
I have several 5 e-mail addresses set up all ending in talktalk.net but they are now telling me i can only have 1.
Is this true and if so what are my other family members supposed to do.
I can receive mail with no problems
but when i try and send one out it keeps erroring
help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

go into your talktalk on this link
http://supportcentre.talktalk.net/
type in your login name and password to connect to broadband.
this is the usually your telephone number @talktalk.net and the password on your welcome letter.
Click on email, here you can see your email accounts and then you can delete any or update any you want.
To check your settings for outlook express
open Outlook express click on Tools, then Accounts, then click on your email address in the box to highlight it.
Click on properties to right of email address.
When box opens click on Servers.
Ensure your Incoming mail is pop.talktalk.net (which i think it will be)
Ensure your Outgoing mail is smtp.talktalk.net(make sure it doesnt mix up the T and M) which is a common fault.
Any questions feel free to pm me.
