Since Peter asked the question I have been snooping around and found that quite a few US ISP's operate with 3-5 Meg Limitations. I am feeling very generous now.
That would seem a bit light for business to business communication (which most of our traffic is). Ok for Joe Bloggs residential customer perhaps. Our limit of 10Mb is a compromise I guess. Its designed to protect customers from themselves. I have had more than one occasion to pull mail from queues (at the request of the customer) after they discover their DDS or ISDN line is saturated for ages on end :-) regards Peter Mott Chief Enthusiast 2Day Internet Limited http://www.2day.net.nz -/- -----Original Message----- From: Bob Baal <rbaal(a)clear.net.nz> To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz <nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz> Date: Friday, 26 February 1999 14:01 Subject: Re: limiting smtp message size

Does anybody here limit size of smtp e-mail messages accepted by mail exchange and if so, what max size (including attachments)?
I have a customer who thinks that we were being unreasonable for rejecting a 20Mb email :-)
20MB isn't unreasonable IMO... most people have limits far below this (as others have replied)
