That's pretty standard. You should always figure on about a 33% increase in attachment size due to mime encoding.

Subject: RE: Does a message arrive or not - solved. It turned out this 6 meg attachment was really 8 megs, so a higher limit did let it through. I'm considering changing the global setting...people do seem to love their freakin' huge powerpoint files.

I'm having a disagreement with an outside user who is trying to send a 6MB powerpoint attachment to one of my users. System limits are currently set at 9MB for incoming, but my own account is set at 20MB, and the message never seems to arrive. How can I check to verify whether the message even hits my system or not? -- the outside user claims to not be receiving any bounce messages from my system. I'm on Exch2K3, Win2K3 AD.
