> I am aware of the <maxmessagesize> to prevent too large messages getting into 
> james and the corresponding fast-fail discussions 
> (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=james-user&m=108040337403426&w=2, 
> http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-134).
> When uploading via a web-mail interface into my MySQL mailstore, I got 
> messages up to 14MB through the system.
> However, I would like to know what is the maximum I can safely handle.
> I didn't find anything documented.
> I did increase the heap for my JVM in phoenix.sh with PHOENIX_OPTS=-Xmx512m, 
> but on a 45MB attachments, it fails with little useful error output:
> <<[r...@myhost logs]# less connections-2004-04-01-09-24.log
> 01/04/04 09:24:35 ERROR connections: Error handling connection
> java.lang.OutOfMemoryError>>
> Especially, since my adaptation of the MySQL mailstore also explicitly stores 
> attachment sizes, I could stop that message from being pushed through the 
> pop3 server before it is in memory and causes problems and then could issue 
> error message saying (e.g. "message ABC too large - please retrieve via 
> webMail interface" instead of the current <<
> Task 'sPop test account - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC0F) : 'The 
> connection to the server was interrupted.  If this problem continues, contact 
> your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'>> I see in my 
> MUA)
