" At both 25MB and 50MB, we usually bump into other peoples size requirements (it becomes a 'not our problem' issue"
I have been taking that approach for years and it has served me well. Once you hit 25 MB it is hardly ever your problem. Still need to help the user get the file they need, but at least you become the savior and not the cause. -----Original Message----- From: Rick Berry [mailto:rbe...@elevativenetworks.com] Sent: Friday, February 15, 2013 9:50 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: message size limit We do same, commonly push to 25MB for 'normal' customers and 50MB for architects and engineers. At both 25MB and 50MB, we usually bump into other peoples size requirements (it becomes a 'not our problem' issue), and for the bigger stuff we use box/dropbox/ftp daemons. I have a prior thread message about ownCloud, DataNow and other 'private dropbox' vendors flagged for research for this same reason. -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

None of my clients have one as high as 50MB though. I would suggest using a different tool. Regardless of what you may be told, email is not a file-transfer mechanism. -----Original Message----- From: Steven Alfano [mailto:salf...@mail.rockefeller.edu] Sent: Friday, February 15, 2013 9:15 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: message size limit We have a request to raise our message size limit to 50 MB for external addresses.
