    Hi ,
    i tried to upload jpg file with my android program, everything is ok but my problem is speed of attachment !
    when i tried attach with android i can see my speed for attachment is ~50-80 KB and when i tried attach with my laptop i can see my speed is ~1-2 MBps .
    why it happened ?

    i think mozilla is use multi trading(multi connection o_O) for upload file like IDM ( internet download manager ) or filezilla and my program not !

    please advice me .
    thank you.

    I don't recommend you to use SMTP for non-small files. First it needs to encode the file with base64 encoding which can slow it down and increase the file size by 33%.
    Secondly the SMTP library does everything in memory. So it may run out of memory.

    FTP or Http will be better here.
