I've had this phone about 6 months and love it. Up until this last week I've had no problems emailing myself or others pictures off the phone. I use the built in email client which is tied to my Hotmail account. I've tried sharing from the gallery as well as manually attaching the pictures to emails, neither works now. If I remember it used to make a noise once it sent an email with an attachment, I no longer get the email but it lets me hit the send button like its going to send. I've restarted the phone since the issue developed. Any ideas?

To beat it all Verizon had to go fuck with things, now you can't just PNP you phone into a PC, it has to install some junk Verizon software which of course didn't take the first time. i finally got it to work and got the pictures on my PC but I'd still like to figure out the email issue. Leave it up to Verizon to mess up one of the best things about Android, PNP drag n drop access of all files on the phone in seconds.

Are you using compression to send multiple pictures? Such as ZIP, RAR, 7Zip, etc. It's possible the mail client is blocking those archived files for security reasons.

I remember having this problem with the LG client. I had to delete my e-mail account from the app and add it again to fix it.

Thanks for the ideas, I'll erase my email account from the email app, reboot the phone then try it again. Typically I send pictures at 50% however it just resizes the JPEG, it doesn't compress it in a ZIP or anything.
