Thanks for your bug submission. I thought that 2 GB was the maximum file size within the Linux file system for technical reasons. It could be 4 GB, but one bit is reserved for something. I wish I had a more authoritative link to give you.
Marking as Confirmed, since evolution needs a way to gracefully handle this use case. Gmail allows 4 GB so we need to keep up with the Jones. ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- 2 gb max inbox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197290 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
