Email short quicktime vid - how?

pug_in_a_bed

I'd like to email a short quicktime video taken with my digital camera to some family. Its only about ten seconds long, how can i do it - will it be too big for email (i havent tried yet as i'm at work). I've heard you can squash stuff by making a winzip file, how do i do that?
thanks!

If it's only 10 seconds long I doubt very much that it will need compressing with winzip.
To email it...just hover your cursor over the actual quicktime file, right-click it and from the dropdown menu scroll to "send to", another little menu will open and just select "mail recipient" and your email program will open with the file already attached ready for you to fill in the recipients email address.
Actually, it probably easier and faster to just open up your email program and add the file(video)attachment..either way will work. Try emailing it to yourself first..and if that works ok then you know it will to another email address.
