Dear All
I'm sure I've seen it somewhere on the forum, but I can't find it now, so I'll ask it anyway: is it possible to change the maximum size of attachement that can be sent with an email on the bubba (one)? I've recently had a few emails not arrive due to the attachment size,and would like to change this to make sending email more reliable...
Cheers, Ian
Maximum attachment size
Re: Maximum attachment size
You could use message_size_limit in /etc/postfix/main.cf for this. It's not there in the conf delivered with the Bubba, which means a default value of 10240000 bytes per mail.

and if you are sending via the web interface you should also look at the "upload_max_filesize" and "post_max_size" in php.ini

Re: Maximum attachment size
Thanks for both replies, have made the necessary changes. I sent a large email to myself, but it seems my ISP has a 15MB limit, so I'll try it with a smaller file....

Re: Maximum attachment size
Yes, there will also be a limit on your SMTP server. There are many better ways to share files than email anyway.
Re: Maximum attachment size
There sure are. But since my wife's sister sent photos of her first newborn as a mail and it got stopped because my postfix were set to not accept messages above 10MB I learned my lesson. My wife wasn't glad at all, so now my postfix accepts very large mails. Just to be sure.RandomUsername wrote:Yes, there will also be a limit on your SMTP server.

That depends very much on the circumstances. Sending someone a small-ish video by email is much easier than uploading it somewhere and then telling them how to download it....RandomUsername wrote:Yes, there will also be a limit on your SMTP server.
