Another way to send large files to email

Sometimes it is hard to send large files to people using email as the recipient email account may limit filesize of an email attachment.

Recently I found out there is a service called SendThisFile which enable you to easily transfer large files to email.

When you register an account (there is a free plan) and send your file to a recipient, the file will be actually uploaded to their server and they will send the recipient an email with a link to the file. Then the recipient can click the URL to download the file. Free account do have some limitations but it does do the work pretty well.

Update: Some lifehack.org readers have suggested two more similar services called YouSendIt.com and DropLoad.com. Both are very good file sending services. Thanks Tomislav, Maneesh and Ryan!
