As others have mentioned, there is no transfer resume for SMTP or POP3. I
know IMAP allows you to download email attachments individually but you
can't resume the downloas from where it gets interrupted either.

Why not just upload the file somewhere that supports upload resume then
just email the URL. Most FTP servers, and cloud storage, services like
Dropbox or Google Drive, supports resuming of interrupted transfers.
