is ironport blocking emails with large attachements?

brianbono · ‎01-21-2009

I have recently adjusted my exchange server to accept attachments as large as 25mb but still when I tried to send an email with an attachment of 15mb it still bounce back as 552 552 #5.3.4 message size exceeds limit (state 18).

I was wondering if need to adjust anything on my Ironport to make sure it allows those large emails. If so, I hope somebody could help out on how to do this adjustment.

thanks,

brian

Ironport + Msoft quote figures around 135% inflation for MIME encoding on email.

(This doesnt account here 15*1.37=20.55)

If mail is outbound you might allow bigger size on your outbound Ironport default policy/or individual policy and retain the 25mb on the Inbound. Your Ironport cfg should be in line with the internal exchange limits

You shouldn't expect to get mail bang on 24.99mb

I sort out the issue..

In microsoft exchange everything is configured well, to send and receive upto 25 MB. Usermail box permission also set for sending 25 MB attachment. Evenif I can receive 15 MB attachment, it resulting in error while sending.

This was the error:-

mail.wrd.ae #550 5.3.4 SMTPSEND.OverAdvertisedSize; message size exceeds fixed maximum size ##

This message is generated by HUB-CASH server

No clue that email is screening by ironport.

Solution:-

Increase the message size limit in ironport

Mail Policies-> Mail Flow Polices -> Relay -> Max Message Size ->25 M

This relay is used for outgoing emails. (Note that the title for that page is confusing: Mail Flow Policy: RELAY - IncomingMail)
