just forward the email to him that has the file which was sent to you.
or if your using outlook just click new email and drag the file into the new email message box.
sorted :O)
if its hotmail there is a paperclip icon which is attach file icon.
just attach the file to a new email.
easiest by far is to forward the email sent to you if its hosted in the cloud as you dont need to upload from your pc to the net.

Normally emails are limited to a certain size, 5Mb seems common.
You can either split the file using winzip/rar and send the parts seperately, or what I'd do is open a "dropbox" account, share it
with cousin and stick the file in there...

If you use gmail as your email provider, then you are able to view the file, and then share it.
I would personally use dropbox - DROPBOX LINK

What size is the PDF file?
If you received it by email then you should be able to send it the same way.
Failing that then a drop box is the easiest option.

go to your drop box on the web site then: share a folder with the recipient and up load the stuff to it - easy to do once you are on the web site.
