You've never seen email used for a companies then have you? It's a
very popular file sharing/storage system even though it's not
designed to do that.
Which is why there should be an internal max_size that is set to
something sane (100MB? 200MB?) - and a configurable max_size
setting that would allow an admin to set a *lower* max_size. Then,
if someone wants to change the internal max_size, they will have to
know what they are doing (to change the sources and re-compile)...
This is a configuration setting that you manage in the mail server.
DO NOT replicate that which is already done in dbmail. That's just
going to lead to heartache and pain for someone -- either the
developers of dbmail, the admins of the mail servers, the users, or
all of the above.
I would *never* allow my mail system to store individual *emails*
larger than 50MB...
Well, you can configure your mail server to limit emails to whatever
size makes you happy.
