    I do a lot of large scale work.

    usually it's done at 1:10 scale at 560 dpi. Since it's not meant to be looked at from 12'' distance the blowup of the resolution is ok.

    Even so a PSD doc with layers for a 50 ft. wall I did recently was more than a gig (ended up as a 40 mgb CMYK JPEG best quality, FTP'd to the printer).

    The client got a scaled down JPEG for the proof (which is ok since their colors never change and they knew what to expect). Otherwise I would suggest to print a proof (fiery or iris) and not send it by e-mail.
