Took 3 x videos on my smart phone today, intending to send them to a
building owner.

They are 109, 110 & 131 MB and I can't send them because "The size of
the message you are trying to send exceeds the global size limit
(52000000 bytes) of the server. The message was not sent; reduce the
message size and try again".

How can I reduce the size? Or is there another way?

Upload them to youtube, or use dropbox.

Memory stick then post or an on line service like Dropbox.

Seriously, those files are way too big for normal mail servers. I think
Yahoo restricts attachments to 5Mb max.

When I have needed to do this I have uploaded it to youtube and sent
them the link.

Mark the video "private" and disable leaving comments to prevent
anything unbusinesslike appearing.

If a regular thing - Compress to MP4 standard (if not already) .. most
phones offer that as video format. Resize to appropriate pixel size
(720 x 576 is still high quality) - phone may be saving as 1080 HD

Then Upload to a file sharing site (Vimeo, MediFire, 4Shared etc.)


Or even simpler way - if it's one-off, and you can't be bothered to
figure out compression & resizing, is upload to Youtube as personal
video and give him the Youtube link
It would then take care of resizing & compression for you.

There is even a Youtube app for your phone.

I notice that your posts of original content all arive in triplicate these
days.
