How to Resolve the Issue of Emails Being Stuck in Your Outlook Outbox

Ensuring smooth email transmission and avoiding congestion in the Outbox requires careful consideration of various factors. One such factor is the size of attachments. Sending large files can be a significant obstacle for email delivery. To tackle this issue, Outlook may suggest storing your attachments on OneDrive, Microsoft’s cloud storage service. However, if this doesn’t happen automatically, you can solve the problem by using cloud storage platforms like OneDrive or Google Drive and compressing files into a zip format.

Here are the steps to upload files to a cloud storage service:

  1. Visit the website of your preferred cloud storage service and log into your account.
  2. Select the option to upload new files, usually labeled as New or Upload.
  3. Locate the large file on your device and start the upload process.
  4. Once the upload is complete, access the file’s sharing options, typically available through a right-click menu.
  5. Adjust the sharing permissions to allow anyone with the link to access the file, then copy the link and include it in your email.

This approach helps overcome the challenges of sending large email attachments by offloading the task to the cloud service.

To compress files into a zip format, follow these instructions:

  1. Locate the large file or files on your device.
  2. Right-click the file or files and select the appropriate option: “Send to” for Windows or “Compress” for Mac.
  3. Name your zip file and attach it to your email once it’s compressed.

Keep in mind that compressing files into a zip format may result in some loss of image or video quality, depending on the file type. If you receive a zip file via email, here’s how you can unzip it on Mac or Windows.
