Max message size with Mail 2.0.5?

What's the max size for a sent mail message? I've tried 5 MB and that doesn't work--and archiving using File>Create Archive only reduces by ~20%.
AlBook 15 1.67 GHz, 1GB RAM, 128MB VRAM, 80GB HD, single-layer SD [7/12/05] Mac OS X (10.4.3)

The maximum size for a mail message (received and sent) is determined by your ISP or email account provider.
A .Mac account has a 10MB overall message size limit for each received and sent message but if you send a message that is 9.5MB and the recipient's ISP or email account provider imposes a 5MB limit for received messages, the message will be rejected by the recipient's incoming mail server.
In addition, all message attachments must be encoded before being sent. The Mail.app uses MIME 1.0 for message encoding which is the internet standard.
As a general rule, MIME encoded binary file attachments are approximately 150% of the size of the original pre-encoded file, i.e. a 5MB file can easily exceed 7.5MB once encoded and attached to an email.
You need to check with your ISP or email account provider regarding their restriction for the overall size of a sent message and you also need to check with the recipient to confirm they can receive a message with the overall size of the message after any attachments are encoded by the Mail.app.

Modify Max Message Size for particular users

I have been requested to permit a group of users (identified with email accounts) to receive emails up to 30 MB. I have check that I have to make modifications in the HAT.
I think the only solution should be to create new policies:
Trusted-new
Blocked-new
Throttled-new
Accepted-new
and in every policy permit a Max Message Size of 30MB. After that, every user should be able to receive 30 MB emails.
Is there a way to permit that only for a group of receiving users, without considering the sender?
I would be glad if anybody get me a clue, thanks!!
Sergio

You would have to accept the message in the HAT and then use an Incoming Mail Policy to select recipient addresses. Add a content filter to that policy to select on size.
Since it sounds like only a few users should be able to recieve large messages you could use two policies.
1) Large message recipient policy
message size < 30mb, Action=DeliverNow
2) Default policy
If message > 10mb, Action=Bounce
You just can't bounce the messages right in the SMTP conversation is the only real limitation.

Jms max message size

I have seen some previous posts but have not found any answers. I am having problems with the onMessage method of a MDB. I am getting a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError for particularly large TextMessages...(2 megs)..Is there a setting somewhere to allow for large messages?
          Thanks for your help.


Hi Karen,
          There is no max-message-size by default, except at the network
          layer of WL outside of JMS (10MB). You are simply running out
          of JVM memory. Increase the amount of memory for your server,
          perhaps decrease the number of MDB instances in your pool, and consider
          decreasing the size of the message backlog. Extra memory is consumed
          in the backlog of messages that have been passed to the MDB
          but haven't been passed to onMessage yet. You can configure the max
          size of this backlog (which defaults to a size of 10) by configuring
          a custom connection factory for the MDB, specifying the JNDI name
          of the custom connection factory in the weblogic descriptor,
          and setting the custom connection factory's "MessagesMaximum" lower.
          If you are creating a custom connection factory for topic MDBs
          be sure to set the acknowledge policy to "before".
          Tom
          P.S. Also consider compressing your messages in your application
          prior to passing them into JMS. Text tends to compress hugely.
          P.P.S. Just in case you don't realize - java Strings consume
          2 bytes per character.

WLS7 JMS Max Message Size

          I have done a search and found many questions on Max Message size, but I didnt
          find any relating specifically to WLS7.
          Q1: Is there a JMS Message Size limit the same as the T3 Max Message size?
          Q2: Does the WLS JMS implementation "chunk" large JMS messages into multiple T3
          messages?
          Cheers,
          Nick


Hi Nick,
          The performance is hard to predict. It is highly dependent on message
          type, application overhead, persistence, store type, CPU and network
          speed, etc., so you will need to measure it yourself. I think you will
          find that once message size exceeds 100K, perhaps less, perhaps more,
          JMS throughput is directly proportional to message size. (eg. it takes
          the same amount of time to send 10 100K messages as it does to send 1
          1MB message.)
          I understand what your "chunking" question were about now. You may
          find it useful to know that since its earliest releases, WebLogic
          outbound requests from one JVM to another are "single threaded" from a
          layered application's point of view: outbound traffic from one
          application must wait until previous requests posted by other apps are sent.

Hi
There is no maximum message size but there are some server and communication dependent consideration like memory,bandwidth etc

WL5.1 max message size

          Does anyone know the practical JMS message size limit in weblogic 5.1? Can I send
          a 10 meg message? 20 meg?
          While we're on the subject, how does wl7 preform with similar sized messages?
          (we're actually sending messages from wl7 to wl5.1 via the bridge)
          Thanks

          I think this question came up recently - I think there is no
          5.1 configurable but I'm not 100% sure. The related 6.0
          and up configurable is a network setting on the WL server
          (defaults to 10MB) for the particular protocol you
          are using (t3). There is no practical limit in message
          size except for memory limitations
          of the JVM (2GB), except that it impacts performance.
          You might try
          the "performance" newsgroup to see if there is a 5.1
          configurable.

          In general each release performs the same as or significantly
          better than previous releases.
          For JMS performance tuning
          info, including bridge tuning info,
          I highly recommend skimming through the JMS Performance
          Guide white-paper. You can find it here:

How to restrict max message size in outlook?

hi all
libimta.so 5.2 (built 15:07:23, Feb 21 2002)
SunOS sundb2 5.9 Generic_112233-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-880

Several thoughts:
1. You're using the original 5.2 released bits. We have released MANY updates since then. With hundreds of fixes. You should REALLY download and install 5.2p2 patch update. Takes 15 minutes:
http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=411bb50d
2. You question, "in outlook" makes answering very difficult. Messaging Server doesn't know Outlook as something different from any other client application. Are you asking, "how do I limit the size of ALL messages handled by the server?", or are you asking something else? If this is the question you're really asking, I can answer that for you. If it's not, please clarify, co I can understand what it is you want.

Max message size JMS

does any one knows how to increase the max size of the JMS messages in sun application server 9?
best regards,

In the configuration file config.properties, add the following.
imq.autocreate.destination.maxBytesPerMsg=-1
imq.autocreate.destination.maxTotalMsgBytes=-1
See if that works. If the queues already exist delete them or change them manually using the mqadmin console.

Incoming messages issues with Mail application

I'm using an email account attached to my internet company and set up with the "Mail Application" on my Mac. For the past week, When I turn "Mail" on, the Mail Activity window would show me the incoming message in progress, ex: 1 out of 26. The process would move forward showing also the speed of the reception (KB/s) and for no reason it would stop in the middle and stop receiving any email. It would basically freeze and I have to quit Mail by "force quit". If I re-open it again, it would be doing the exact same thing and receiving again the first couple emails, always the same one that I already received and freeze in the middle. I basically can't use Mail at all lately. Any idea to fix this problem?
Thanks

Hi there,
cool, I'm not alone...
I can't remember exactly, when the problem started. I guess it was around the 10.5.2 or 10.5.3 update. Before (also in Leopard) Mail worked fine.
Now I have to do the following procedure to receive an email (note: I have to repeat this for each email):
1. Check, if mail is receiving an email (because it never completes receiving on it's own, I'm never notified of the new email).
2. If Mail is receiving an email (check the Activity window), I have to force quit mail
3. Launch Mail again, immediately hurrying to the Mailbox menu and setting all accounts to offline.
By now, the email has already been received from the server but not internally marked as such, so staying online would result in fetching the same email again – hanging 'afterwards' included.
4. Select the Inbox and open the Get Account Info window by right clicking on the Inbox or pressing cmd + i.
5. Select the corresponding account from the list (I got three POP3 accounts), e.g. the one for which the last email has been received.
6. Manually remove this email (and only this one) from the server.
7. Close the Get Account Info window and take all accounts online again.
8. Check for new mail...
+If I would for example get 4 new emails, I would have to repeat this procedure 4 times.+
Yes, I'm not happy about it.
*I already did the following (using hints from other threads):*
Remove Mail.app, and /Library/Mail/
Installing Mail.app and the /Library/Mail/ folder again from the 10.5.0 DVD using Pacifist.
Updating the former installation with the 10.5.6 Combo update
Installing the Mail Update 10.5.6 afterwards
Removing the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Restart
Launch Mail, setting up all accounts from scratch
Create a new user
Open Mail, setting up a new account
Reset Power Management
*So far, nothing did solve the problem.*
Next would be Archive and Install Mac OS X but I currently don't have the time for that procedure.
I have two Mac Pros (one at work, one at home) who both have this issue.
I believe, it's a bug though and will send this text to Apple via "Provide Mail Feedback" in Mail's Mail menu.

Setting MAX message size

Hello-
I am using Sun ONE MQ 3.5. I have a need to send large messages in some rare instances. One such message is about 20MB. Potentially, these messages could be of any size however.
I have set the following properties in my config.properties and restarted the imq broker
imq.system.max_count=-1
imq.system.max_size=-1
imq.log.level=DEBUG
imq.message.max_size=-1
However, when I attempt to send a message of this size, I get the following error in my imqbroker logs:
[08/Jul/2004:09:23:12 CDT] WARNING [B2011]: Storing of JMS message from IMQConn[AUTHENTICATED,[email protected]:1216,jms:1193] failed:
com.sun.messaging.jmq.jmsserver.util.BrokerException: [B4122]: Can not store message 10-10.1.1.65(de:a1:a5:c4:67:27)-1216-1089296592204 on destination directDestination35 [Queue] because the packet size of 19475250 bytes is larger than the message limit of 10485760 bytes.
The size, according to this, is most definitely not unlimited. I can compress these files before adding them to the message body, but there is still the potentially that even a compressed file can exceed this 10MB limit. Also, I can devise an alternate route over sockets or something, but that complicates the solution quite a bit and I'd rather not.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
troy

Troy,
Try using 0 as the imq.system.max_size property.
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-5922-10/imq_sys.html#37368
I know that this used to be the "no limit" value and I think you are correct that it changed to -1. However I just checked the maual for 3.5 and on page 134 it still seems to say that 0 means "no limit".
Hope this helps!

Max Message Size

I´d like to configure the prohibition of processing messages grater than 100 MB... Is that possible? In which tx?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
You have give this value to the parameter EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT in the transaction SXMB_ADM --> Integration Engine Configuration and selecting TUNING as the category. You can even check the documentation for this parameter on the same page there. After saving this parameter verify at RWB ->RWB->Component Monitoring->Integration Engine->
Settings->Tuning.
Add one more EO_INBOUND_TO_OUTBOUND this will allow data not to be placed on Outbound queue and bring to inbound queue. This is having advantage that to process high volume message you will get better performance but disadvantage is when there is no receiver inbound queue is blocked.
But remember, if the message sieze is too big, it will effect performance.

Messages Sent With .Jpeg's From Mail-Receive On PC's,Smaller Than When Sent

We seem to have an issue when we send .Jpeg's from Mac Mail, all our systems are up to date and are all very new.
*Basically when we drop a pic from desktop into a new mail message in Mac Mail and/or create a new mail message from iPhoto with an attached image from iphoto, it shows up fine in the message body and is at full resolution e.g Very Large.*
*After sending the mail to a recipient on a PC, the recipient receives the message in their mail program ( something like outlook ) and when they view the message it shows up as a small .Jpeg embedded*
And when I mean small its small like almost unreadable.
Any one got any ideas ? - I dont want to send emails as plain tex, only rich tex cause we have html signatures that need to look cool.
Cheers.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Have you set the size of the jpeg in the new message window?
