Uploading large files  (See more user questions)

Hi

Good to hear from you.

If the script says the fields are empty, they will be. This happens when a
file upload is too large and is rejected by PHP on the server. The script
doesn't get to see the file and rightly say's the field is empty.

Did you have a look at this page on my support section:

https://formtoemail.com/developersupport/not_receiving_attachments.php

The script itself will not block files unless you configure it to do so.
Try it with default settings if need be. I don't think execution time is
relevant.

Any questions, just let me know.

Best wishes.
