But dbmail wouldn't like 6GB messages except on machines with a *lot* of
ram. There's a lot of in-memory copying going on. I've been testing with
1GB messages a while back on a 1GB machine and it wasn't pretty. I
removed the most blatantly redundant copying at the time, and it helped,
but zero-copy we aint;
There should absolutely be a configurable max message size.
A 6GB attachment is *totally* unrealistic for *any* email system to be
expected to handle.
First - determine what the maximum *realistic* size of a message that
DBMail can handle, based on certain cofigurations (ie, PostgreSQL may be
able to handle larger messages than MySQL, or vice-versa)... then
*hard-code* in that max size, and make a configuration parameter
available that admins can set to make their max size *lower*, but not
*larger*.
