Email limits?

[TomM]

Im having a problem with some emails. My email at the same domain will exept this 10meg attachment. Although the rest of the users email boxes will not exept the 10meg attachment and will only allow an attachment under one meg. Here is the message I get when sending them the email with 10 meg attachment:

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

([email protected]) on 5/13/2006 6:59 AM
This message is larger than the current system limit or the recipient's mailbox is full. Create a shorter message body or remove attachments and try sending it again.
<mydomain.com #5.2.3 smtp;450 5.2.3 Msg Size greater than allowed by Remote Host>

------------------------------------------

All of these users have "unlimited" also the domain is unlimited as far as disk usage and such.

Thank you

Within my exim.conf the size limit is 20meg aswell.
Is there something Im missing?

 

[fuigus]

does the user your sending it to have enough quota?

 

[TomM]

yes.

The user is on the same domain, same server and has "unlimited" checked off next to his name under email.

Thank you for the suggestion though.

anybody?

Check in /etc/exim.conf for the following variable.

message_size_limit = 20M

If your exim.conf does not have this then you can add it to the exim.conf file. Add it somewhere near the top area. Mine is above the variable smtp_receive_timeout.

The 20M means 20Megabyte files can be sent. Change it to what you feel is ok.

My exim.conf does have that set at 20m.
The file I had tried to send was only 10m. That is why this is such an odd problem.

Thank you for the reply

[fuigus]

what is the timeout set too?

 

[TomM]

message_size_limit=120m
smtp_receive_timeout=5m
smtp_accept_max=100


That is the relivant exim.conf data.

Thank you for the response, I appreciate the help

[fuigus]

try smtp_receive_timeout = 10m
