Digital camera and choices on resolution, compression, etc.

We have a Canon Powershot SD780 IS.
Here are pages from the manual. On pixels, compression, etc.

The short 3-4 minute videos are rather large. 50MB etc.

Which compression setting (fine or normal) and pixels (there are 6 choices) would be best to decrease the size of these videos?
It's not my camera so I can not at the moment find out what settings they are using. The other options may not help out as far as size.

We need lower size for reasons. One is that the ISP mail program won't allow a file larger than 18MB.

As you can see in the images below the format output is MOV. Then we are converting them to something else (?) that is best for use with Youtube.
