What was the size limit on the individual mailboxes?
-----Original Message----- From: Couch, Nate [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, September 06, 2002 7:50 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: need ammo We have one customer with a 100MB SMTP limit which "they say" needed for some large CAD engineering drawings they were sending. One of these got caught in an email loop and generated so many transaction log files that it killed the server. We spent the good portion of a day recovering from that disaster. Most of our customers have reasonable limits 10-15MB. Have them use Winzip. It will save them time and you headaches. Just tell them the story above and imagine what their CEO would say if he/she finds out it was them who caused him/her a delay in getting the CEO's email sent. They might find themselves on the unemployment line like the guy above did.
