Set mail message size?

Help! (Home for newbies)

A client is getting email rejection notices stating that the email was too big, "Remote host said: 552 Error: message too large "

This is on a CentOS 4 system. Where can I set the value for the message size? They are way under their quota for the site.

Thanks!

Howdy,

Yeah, Postfix has limits setup as far as how large an email can be in order for it to be willing to accept it.

You can change that by specifying a “message_size_limit” in /etc/postfix/main.cf, or by going into Webmin -> Servers -> Postfix -> General Resource Control, and set “Max size of a message”.
