E-mail is not really suitable for sending and receiving files much larger than about 10 MB.  IT Services provides a file transfer service which presently supports files of up to 10 GB in size; this service lets University of Glasgow users upload files which can be retrieved by anyone, and also lets external users upload files for retrieval by recipients with a University of Glasgow e-mail address.

You can find more information about this service here:
