Question

sent message, received over sized error message, cannot recover sent email

Answer 1

Hi @James, Randy

Thank you for reaching out to our Q&A forum.

May I know which method do you use to connect this account? (Exchange or IMAP/POP)

Can you please confirm you are seeing this error message?

If yes, normally Outlook will store the email message in Outbox. Please have a check there. You can see the size limit is 151MB. It exceeded the limit which is 150MB (this applies for Exchange Online; the limit might be different if you have another provider)

You can read here for more details Exchange Online limits - Service Descriptions | Microsoft Learn

You can consider reduce the size of the attachment to prevent this issue.

I hope this information helps.
