Why am I unable to send an attachment with Outlook via SMTP that I am able to send via Gmail / Google Apps?
- by cwd
I have Google Apps installed and I have tried to set up Outlook 2007 to send messages via SMTP.
I followed the guide, selecting what I believe are all the correct settings. Yes, I am using POP for incoming, that is intentional but I don't believe it should affect outgoing messages.
When I log into gmail (google apps) for my company, I can send a message that has an 8MB attachment (pdf file, not zipped or anything) and it sends fine. However, when I send the same message in Outlook with that same 8mb attachment it fails.

The company I am sending email to is a company that uses Google Apps for Teams. This is their apps admin login. Should I be worried about that message?
My Settings
On the Google apps side I have set my SPF record and set / verified my DKIM key. Here are my outlook settings:
