I linked my gmail account to my mcmaster account and I send everything through there - not sure if I've tried that many attachments, but it should work.

You could always zip the items...

Put them in a folder, then right click on the folder and select "archive", I think.

What Mark said. Zip the files into one file you can attach to your e-mail.

After reading week, there were delays between the lawyers for McMaster and Google going back and forth trying to forge a deal out.

I hope they at least test it during reading week... I don't want a broken email system during the school year

You can either send two seperate emails, but my recommendation would be to just supply external links to mediafire, filefront, etc.

Mediafire actually lets you compose folders, so i would suggest that filehoting website.

Does linking your mcmaster id to your gmail allow you to send message through gmail under your macid alias?

The only reason i suggested that she use a filehosting service is because most T.A's aren't allowed to accept submissions unless you send them through your macid alias.

:/

I'm pretty sure you can but I have no idea how, but I've never had the requirement to only be able to submit my homework through my macid.. just one instance where I had to provide my mac email..
