2024 MacBook Air M3, Tahoe 26.6.2.
I c&p'd a news story with photos and sent it. Before I sent it, Apple Mail told me my email was only 294KB even with photos, but when it got to the recipient it was 9MB, and it really jammed up her email (she doesn't use Apple Mail). How does that happen? If I had known that beforehand, I would have deleted the photos and just sent the text. Usually when I include photos, whether c&p or screenshots, Mail tells me it's in the MB range. But not this time, so I thought it was OK. Any ideas? Besides not trusting what Mail says the size is?
