The limits
Gmail caps attachments at 25 MB, Outlook at 20 MB, and many corporate mail servers are stricter than either. Aim under 20 MB and you will clear almost all of them.
Bear in mind that mail encoding inflates attachments by roughly a third in transit, which is why a file that looks like it fits sometimes bounces. Leaving headroom is worth it.
Common questions
How long a video fits in 25 MB?
Around two to three minutes at these settings for ordinary footage.
Is there a better way to send a long video?
Yes, a file link. Compressing a 20 minute video to 25 MB will not produce anything worth watching.
