any way to send/email mp3s?

Has anyone found a way to email or otherwise send mp3 files to another person? I tried the "Explorer" file manager which allows emailing files. I can email from gmail to another account. When I access that account with the standard email client, there is no option to save the audio file (or even just open) as there is for receiving image files. When I send from my non-gmail account to gmail, the file gets truncated to 5MB and can only be previewed within the gmail client. I tried the K-9 client but I can't set it up with my non-gmail account because you cannot select a port for the incoming server (only the outgoing). Thanks for any suggestions.

Try using the web browser to go to gmail and see if it work.
 
Yes, use gmail, but you have to use the web interface to download files.

I use DropBox to get files from my PC to my phone, then Astro to put the file where it belongs.

Dropbox also allows you to share a file, so you could send your friend the Dropbox URL.
