You've received several suggestions for sending the file from the
perspective of file management. You might also try going at it
from the perspective of e-mail management. There is a little-
known but high-end e-mail program with the unfortunate name of The
Bat! from Ritlabs (www.ritlabs.com). One of its countless
features is the ability to break up a message and attachment(s)
into smaller pieces for just the situation you described. I
assume it works, because it's been available in the program for a
long time and I've never seen a question raised about it in the
mailing lists, but I've never tried it personally.

FWIW, I think the best solution is uploading it as a Zipped file
to a web site and e-mailing a link. But as a second choice I'd
investigate the idea of mailing subparts; possibly other mail
clients also have the feature described above.
