I have a partial answer to my own qwestion.

If i send an email with a single line upto 949 chrs i am ok. exceed 950 
and i get the error " 552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded 
storage allocation" regardless of actual message size.

has anyone come across this? I know line wrap will stop this occuring 
normally, but unfortunatly, we do have to cater for the It inempt too!

So can this restriction be lifed?

cheers
