    AFAIK you cannot attach files to a private message, but you could include a link to your Google Drive or another FTP site. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      Yep, you cannot. I use Google drive to upload and share files with members.
      A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
      Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

          Well, I meant sharing something bigger like GB.
          Today even simple SM is about 300MB

                Correct, no attachments in PMs, security issue.
