Postfix: "Message size exceeds fixed limit"
Peekaboo, Cool

I have an account which has to transfer a lot of laaaaaarge mails and Postfix won't accept them with a "Message size exceeds fixed limit"?

Any hint in which file to look for that?

Thanks for any help.

RE: Postfix: "Message size exceeds fixed limit"
This is what postconf -d says:
Code:
# postconf -d |grep size_limit
body_checks_size_limit = 51200
bounce_size_limit = 50000
header_size_limit = 102400
mailbox_size_limit = 51200000
message_size_limit = 10240000

The Problem should be message_size_limit, but I wonder why the mailbox size is limited too, when cat main.cf says:
Code:
# cat main.cf |grep size_limit
mailbox_size_limit           = 0

man postconf Wrote:-d Print default parameter settings instead of actual settings.

Oups ... Rolleyes

Code:
#postconf -n |grep size_limit
mailbox_size_limit = 0

Can't we adjust the sizes for each mailbox and mail account?

RE: Postfix: "Message size exceeds fixed limit"
I put a new line in main.cf:
Code:
message_size_limit = 0

and so I get:
Code:
# postconf -n |grep size_limit
mailbox_size_limit = 0
message_size_limit = 0

but it would still be nice to change these settings per account - at least I think so. Tongue
