Assuming your application is called by the mail system: your mail delivery system may limit the size of files to 50MB using the 'setrlimit' system call. If you have source code you can check that easily. The 'bash' shell shows all resource limits with the command 'ulimit -a', maybe you can insert it in a script somewhere and find out what it's actually set to. BTW: sendmail (8.13.1) explicitly tries to set the file resource limit to 'infinity', which may fail if the hard limit was lowered. Gé
