Is there a best debian program to compress avi videos enough to send

I have found ffmpeg and avidemux and am trying to learn to use them but
have not had much success so far.

They are both good, but even if you can get the video down to a few megabytes, the other (or his software) may not expect video in email attachment, causing trouble. e.g. their email client on mobile phone may not properly handle such case. (putting into email) it is unusual thing to do, at least for those who often send video. Many offered video hosting, and any cloud service / FTP service can host videos too. Perhaps you can make use of twoftpd/vsftpd and other file hosting software instead?
