Attachment Size Limit?

I am using a loop with Send Mail script step to send emails to 700 records. I use Outlook 2000 on a Windows XP Pro machine using FileMaker 5.0 v3. This works great and I have no problems. When I alter the script to attach a PDF that is over 100 KB in size, the script runs, but no email is generated. If I alter the script to attach a PDF that is <100 KB, the script works fine. I have tested on several machines, all with the same result.

Is there an attachment size limit for FileMaker using the Send Mail script?

After several additional tests after this post, this is NOT a file size issue, in fact it is a name length issue. Apparently, through my tests, if the length of the file name is >13 characters (not including the extension name ".PDF"), the script will fail. If the file name length of the attachment is <14 characters, the script will work.

Has anyone run into this? Any explanations?
