Most email servers at ISPs such as Verizon and Comcast restrict the file size on attachments so you either need to downsize the file or use a service designed to share larger files such as dropbox.

Make certain they're jpegs, not tiffs. And you can lower the quality some to make them smaller. Of course, depending on your purpose in e-mailing them, you might not want to do that. I which case you can use dropbox or sendspace to send a larger image.

Assuming you trying to send Jpegs, they are usually between ~100kb up to 5Mb or larger. If you are sending more than 1 at a time you may exceed the limits of your email system or the recipients. Right Click on the image on your computer and check the size. If they are too large save/Export (in LR) your image as a Jpeg at a smaller size. Luck

I always resize my photos to 100-300kb before sending. It doesn't degrade the image on anyone's screen, sends faster, and is a bit of protection against someone stealing it and using it elsewhere for profit.

Most email providers limit the total message size to about 20Meg.
You can get around that with Drop Box or One Drive.
Ran into that problem sending a lot info to accountants for clients at my old job.(PW protected PDFs)
Had to break them down into multiple emails.

Try the techniques discussed in this post to lower the image resolution and / or JPEG quality to produce a smaller physical file attachment.

If you are emailing for viewing on a computer, size reduction is fine.
If you are emailing for them to print, use Drop Box or something similar.
(Transferring large files to Drop Box is different than sending email.)

You could actually use a utility called JPEG Mini Pro - goofy name, but I find that it really does shrink JPEG files by up to two thirds and when they are opened there is no difference to the uncompressed version.
And yes, i am well aware that JPEG itself is a compression algorithm, but these guys have managed to take it to another level.

If you use Windows 10, just right click on the image itself, click Print, then just select the size of the image you want.
