Warning on the commercial services like Yousendit, be very careful. I had one guy use this once, and the client went into a hissy fit since it was confidential info, which is very understandable. Many business communications are not supposed to touch 3rd party servers like this. ZIP and password protect it if you can.
Many times, I just resort to allowing users to email large files due to one reason: If you actually send the file, you have PROOF they got it, and proof was sent to them. If you provide them an FTP Link or HTTP link, etc, you DON'T have any proof that the document was placed in their hands. Depends on the nature of your business, but to us that single factor alone is quite substantial. -----Original Message----- From: Don Andrews [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 12:40 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Attachment size limits We use Tumbleweed's Secure Messenger - basically a secure FTP like product with email notification wrapped in an email like browser based interface. Be happy to send you sample off-list if you like. Yousendit.com is a web based similar offering - free I believe for individuals. -----Original Message----- From: Tom Strader [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 9:48 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Attachment size limits I've communicated that to his secretary. I've looked at some solutions to this problem, but it would be nice to hear what solutions the list members use to avoid sending documents through email. Any suggestions? Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 12:40 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Attachment size limits If the recipients are external it is highly likely that no one will be able to receive it if the email is too large. -----Original Message----- From: Tom Strader [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 9:31 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Attachment size limits Thanks Richard, Our CEO's secretary is preparing the email for the CEO to send to specific recipients and we're ran into this situation before so I'll just set it globally for everyone to avoid any further calls to the Pres. Complaining they are limited in doing their jobs. (long story) Thanks for all the help ya'll!! -----Original Message----- From: Staley, Richard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 12:11 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Attachment size limits Tom, Although I agree with everyone else that the defaults are included in the System Manger, if you have active directory running, you can modify an individual's sizes. Go to active directory and select the user, right click and select properties. On the Exchange General tab click on the Delivery Restrictions button and set the send limit to whatever the CEO requires. This setting will override the defaults in System manager.

I've looked in Systems Manager, there are no limits set for mailbox send and receive. Is this setting located in another area and/or a registry key that needs to be added?
