What size is the photo you are tying to send. The problem is probably that
your ISP has a limit on the size of attachments. This can vary from 2MB to
5MB but is done in order to prevent slowdowns on e-mail sending and
receiving as well as means of helping to prevent spam from being sent from
their servers.
If Picasa can't reduce the size of the photo and understand, the size grows
somewhat when attached to an e-mail so the smaller the better, you can try
IrfanView,
