Probably the file size, which is over 16 megs.
You can configure the maximum file size allowed to be sent within Chest into Chest settings.

Probably the file size, which is over 16 megs. I didn't see that window in your screenshot when I right-clicked the file in Chest and chose Mail..., with the exeption of the other files, all under 3kb in size.

I'm a little confused, what window did you see for the other files that you say "I have 4 other files in the chest and they will bring up the mail window," because the image I posted is what should happen from the avast chest when you right click on the file.

I finally got smart and set my Verizon Email Advanced Account setting to break up files over 60 KB into sections before sending, so I hope the AWIL Customer Support doesn't blacklist my IP for spamming them with 88 60kb parts of the file.  :P
Thanks for your help.

The files shouldn't be being emailed at all, because the new submission method doesn't email now but uploads directly. Which to me means you might not have the latest version of avast, 4.8.1296, so what version and build do you have ?

The About says I have Avast! Version 4.8 Home Edition, Build Dec2008 (4.8.2916), Plus Xtreme Toolkit Version 1.9.4.0.

I have set the Maximum File size for Submission to 20,000kb and the pop-up appeared. I will manually update to allow it to send. Thanks!

Update: Okay, I updated from the Taskbar icon and received confirmation that my version was up to date. I assume that's all that has to be done. Will I receive info about the file itself by Email?

Well either you are using a time machine or entering the incorrect data as the latest version is 4.8.1296 (build 2916 is in the future). So I'm guessing a typo and you have build 1296 not 2916. Which give the quandary of why you aren't seeing the new submission window before.

Did you see it on your latest attempt after changing the maximum size to send ?

If you did a manual check after the submission you should have seen the submission process during the update, see image2.

Yup, 1296, typo. sorry. I didn't notice the second window in your screenshot but it may have been hidden, but something was being sent during the update process, so I assume the file reached it's destination.

It isn't hidden (as far as I'm aware) but I guess it could have been in the background somewhwer, you would have ot be looking out for it.
