Although this does *appear* to be an issue on your end, I doesn't seem to be: IMail doesn't use the term "Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation" (it uses "552 message size exceeds maximum message size.").Recently, he tried to send a large attachment (not sure how large as I never received it), and he got the following message:Remote-MTA: DNS; mail.todhunter.com Diagnostic-Code: SMTP; 552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation
Unless there is a very odd problem -- such one of your DNS servers occasionally returning the wrong answer, which shouldn't happen (BTW, are you aware that your backup mailserver has the same IP as your primary?), the problem isn't on your end.
http://postmaster.info.aol.com/mailer.html says "This indicates the the mail sent was larger than AOL currently allows. The largest piece of e-mail that an AOL member can accept from or send to the Internet is 16 megs. This includes the message text, headers and the attachment combined. These sizes can not be changed."My question is this... Is there somewhere, a link or something, where I can point him, that proves that AOL will limit attachment size? At one point, I seem to remember this list speaking about some AOL website that had their mail rules on it.
