can´t send emails with pdf attachments - why?

Since i moved all my accounts to my new airbook (OS X 10.8.2) everything works fine BUT i am not able to send emails with pdf attachments.I have an exchange and a mac.account - but they both won`t work.

The emails stay put in the local ausgang? exit box and won`t move away unless i delete them.

i checked the accounts, the activity - all says it works fine - but it doesn`t!

Maybe in the *deep* of my mac is one thing that says no pdf - but where can i find it?

I appreciate every helpful hint :-)

greetings

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

What happens when you try to send the messages?

it tries to send the email for about five minutes and than gives the message *server doesn't work* you want to try another? repeat? or later?

when i change the server e.g. from exchange to mac - tries again and without further notice i find the message in the outbox - even when i click that one and *send* again - nothing changes......

I already tried to name the attachments in.pdf - i also change the pdf to jpeg - nothing works - all emails i write after that go immediately to the outbox - so when i want to send messages at all i need to delete the ones with the attachment or send the other ones manually

Please notice in the activity window there is a lot of traffic :-) but it doesn`t help

i even closed all other programmes like excel,safari and stuff - but still

and i still have al lot of free GB on my airbook....

any idea????

Hi everyone,

an old saying goes like *check the hardware first* - sorry i didn`t do that 😟

We found out it`s a server problem - our line is bad and working very slowly, so that might be the reason my bigger mails won`t go through - we are currantly working on this and if you don`t hear from me again - that was the problem!

Thx anyway
