Re: Aaron Bartell Email Utility

[John McKee <jmmckee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I remember, somewhere, a setting about the email size.  On our system,
it was initially set ridiculously low.  But, right now, I am drawing a
blank on where it is found.  I did not think that intermediate hops
were concerned about the email size or the attachment size.  But, the
sender cares.  For example, my email address is now managed by Google
(long story).  I have not checked for attachment size limit since
Google was used to handle email.  But, before that happened, the
maximum size was 2MB.  One other account I created on a free mail
service has a 10MB limit.  I think Google has no limit - but I could
be wrong.  Once the email is started over the network, the
intermediate stops may segment the mail and reassemble it later, at
least from what I have seen.
