Mail is reducing the size of the pictures

When I send pictures by email from Photo, pictures arrive totally reduced even if I choose the largest option.

Any idea ?

Also mail drop is not proposed anymore

Zip won't reduce the size of a JPEG - the file is already reduced, and of course, zip is lossless. What it will do is change a file that the Mac recognizes as an image into a file that the Mac has to just pass through unaltered.

I understand Keith but it was not necessary to do that before. It always worked well in the past. You send a picture and you had the choice to keep it in the same size. And why mail drop disappeared ???
