Have you ever found yourself in the midst of sending a critical email, only to be thwarted by the frustrating message, “file too large to send”? It’s a common struggle that South African business owners, managers, and IT teams face regularly.

But here’s the good news: Microsoft has not only heard our collective sighs of exasperation but has also taken action to resolve this age-old issue. This time, it’s not too good to be true!

In a recent announcement posted on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant unveiled its plan to seamlessly integrate Outlook with Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud storage platform. This strategic move holds the promise of finally bidding farewell to the ‘file too large’ dilemma.

So, how does it work? When you encounter that pesky attachment size limit in Outlook, the platform will guide you to upload your file to OneDrive, ensuring that your essential document still reaches its intended recipient. It’s a wonderfully simple solution that could save you from countless headaches.

While Android users are the first recipients of this new feature, the rollout for all other users is set for this month, so the wait won’t be long.

Imagine a world where you no longer need to struggle with compressing, resizing, or abandoning your large files, nor do you have to resort to potentially risky third-party services. Microsoft is paving the way for a smoother, more efficient email experience.

As thought leaders in the IT industry, we understand the importance of staying ahead of technological advancements. If you’re interested in unlocking the full potential of your Microsoft 365 subscription, get in touch with us today.
