Hi Michael, I just checked and the restriction is slightly above 250 kb, but every now and then a piece of code or text format, pushes it above and will get stuck. This cannot be helped, other than people sending mail in plain TXT & HTML as clean as possIble.
But if anyone feels that something has not reached the list, just let me know and I will sort it out :-) Thanks for highlighting this matter Michael.. marc > HI Mark > just to be clear is the file size limit definitely *250k* this time?
