    That isn't an iPhone, Apple or ios limitation, but a limitation by your email provider. you're only allowed so many mb/gb to send and receive.

    I don't think it's iOS 10. I just sent 6 pictures using the built in Mail app from one Gmail account. And then I sent 6 from my other Gmail account using the Gmail app. In both cases I selected the pictures from within the app itself. Perhaps it's your email provider that's imposing the limit.

    All mail servers impose send and receive limits. Apparently you have hit that limit with 5 photos.

    I have never heard of mail servers that allow GB send/receive limit. The largest I've seen is perhaps 100MB.

    You're correct, I can never distinguish between mb and gb  that's why I put mb/gb...

    I knew someone would correct me.  Thanks.
