Ah HA!! Found the issue. We did not previously have a spamc.conf file on our system. This ought to reside in /etc/mail/spamassassin by default. Once I created this file, and reloaded Spamassassin, our max message size has gone up to 350K /etc/spamassassin/spamc.conf : -s 350000 As easy as that Cheers, Mike
