Hi ,
I am having a problem with the new email size feature. I set it to 10 (mb) and didn't test it. Later I looked at the logs and saw a lot of email being dropped because of the size limitation. So I tested by zipping up several documents with NO compression and attempted to send through the spam filter to myself. The zip file was about 9mb in size...

basically all my emails were getting blocked and returned with the message about the email size,even after I got the attachment down to below 6mb it still bounced... after that I turned off the message attachment size filter.

Is anyone else running into this problem?
All I had in the zip was some pdf's and word docs.

Thanks...

I'm running into the same problem. I had to disable the size limitation. It would also be nice if Spamfilter reported the size of the blocked e-mail in the log.

Same here,  pretty much any emails with a file were being blocked (I had it set for 5 MB)

I turned it off...

The GUI has a typo on the Max Msg Size label. The value entered indicates the maximum size in KBytes, not MB as the label indicates. We apologize for the problem, a new build with the corrected label will be uploaded shortly.

It looks like there is a limit of the Max size of 500.  To be able to accept 5MB quota's this needs to be 5000K   Can this be changed in the program to allow bigger and 500K.

Thanks,
Dan

Dan,

I don't know how these mishaps with the max size were missed in the testing... The latest build .205 has an upper limit of 5000000 KB, which should be plenty for all needs!
