Show them how extensive it is to archive dozens of copies of
hundreds of multi-GB files. Maybe the corporate pocketbook will
start squealing. Wave SOX in their faces?

BTW, doesn't Outlook have some hook into SharePoint so that you can
send the attachment to SharePoint and just have a link in the email?

As a last resort, you could claim that Microsoft contraindicates
attachments above a certain size and then go into Exchange and set
the max attachment size...
