My email account in my office allows me to receive any size of file, but, I'm only allowed to send out files up to 4mb... in the instances that I've needed to send out slightly larger files, I use my yahoo based email account (my yahoo.com, gatewayaug.com and icadc.com emailed addresses are all hosted by yahoo... so, if you've ever expected an email from me and not gotten it... tell your filters not to be so snobby), which will send up to 10mb.
Edit: Gmail is now my program of choice for this.
But, if you need to send out files larger than what your email client is capable of handling, you might want to explore some other options.
As always, google is your best friend if you want to search for a free file sharing site, or a free ftp site.
Or, hearing about sites from other people...

Dropload is a place for you to drop your files off and have them picked up by someone else at a later time. Recipients you specify are sent an email with instructions on how to download the file. Files are removed from the system after 7 days, regardless if they have been picked up or not. You can upload any type of file, mp3, movies, docs, pdfs, up to 100MB each! Recipients can be anyone with an email address
