Hi Brian,

If it is not set in sympa.conf, then you're using the default value (which for now is https://www.sympa.community/gpldoc/man/sympa_config.5.html#max_size).

However, if it is set in one of the robot.conf file or in the lists's config file, this value will be used instead of the default. See the Sympa documentation to understandff how site, domain and lists configuration overlap.

Regards,

David

I would like to set it at the site level. Looking at the sympa.conf file, I’m not seeing anything in regards to file size. Could it be defined somewhere else?

Hello Brian,

This is set by the "max_size" parameter which can be defined at the list, domain or whole site level.

Sympa 6.2.68 has no issue with this parameter, so it must be restrictive somewhere in your configuration.

Also remember that an attachment has weighs roughly 1.4 times its nomal size when embedded in the mail.

Best regards,

David

Good morning (or Evening),

I’m a total noob with Sympa so please bear with me if this is an obvious fix. I’ve been looking through email and haven’t found the fix yet.

 

Having an issue with emails with attachments are getting denied for being too large, even if they aren’t that big.

 

Sympa version: 6.2.68

 

ERROR MESSAGE:

Your message is too large to send. To send it, make the message smaller, for example, by removing attachments.

 

 

Thanks,
