Hi folks,

We encounter some issues when sending emails above 10Mb.
When we try to send these from our outlook client, we get the message

"... reported error (0x80040610):'The message being sent exceeds the message size established for this user'

I allready changed the Receiveconnector from 10Mb to 30Mb but still not possible to sent emails above 10Mb.
I also checked the sendconnector but here is the maxmessagesize set to unlimited.

I don't know anymore where to search.

Thanks for your help

Best Regards


Beecky

 
To find out what the current limit is use the following command in power shell

Get-SendConnector "Send Connector Name" | Format-List

10 MB is default. To set a new limit use the following command in power shell

Set-SendConnector "Send Connector Name" -MaxMessageSize 100MB

It is what it is!!

Hello Computerhighguy

I don't agree with your tip. This is true when sending email to the internet. But we have also this problem when we try to send internal emails above 10Mb
The transportcontrol show also that the maximum messagesize is Unlimited.

This is the result from a Get-SendConnector

AddressSpaces : {smtp:*;1}
AuthenticationCredential :
Comment :
ConnectedDomains : {}
ConnectionInactivityTimeOut : 00:10:00
DNSRoutingEnabled : False
DomainSecureEnabled : False
Enabled : True
ForceHELO : False
Fqdn :
HomeMTA : Microsoft MTA
HomeMtaServerId : xxxxxx
Identity : xxxxxxxxx
IgnoreSTARTTLS : False
IsScopedConnector : False
IsSmtpConnector : True
LinkedReceiveConnector :
MaxMessageSize : unlimited
Name : xxxxxxxxxxxx
Port : 25
ProtocolLoggingLevel : None
RequireTLS : False

SourceRoutingGroup : Exchange Routing Group (DWBGZMFD01QNBJR)
SourceTransportServers : {xxxxx}
UseExternalDNSServersEnabled : False

Have you tried these commands

Get-SendConnector | Select identity,MaxMessageSize

followed by increasing it's size:

Set-SendConnector -identity "NameOfSendConnector" -MaxMessageSize: 20MB

I've read the document, but all seems correct. The strangest thing is that even internal mail above 10Mb is not getting through. The when I do a Get-Transportconfig it shows me unlimited.

The result of the Get-SendConnector is

This is the result from a Get-SendConnector

As you can see it shows unlimited...

I'm missing something here

Yeah I totally want my props for this one. Lots of stars everyone.

3 Easy Steps

1)Using ADSIEdit, go to Configuration -> Services -> Microsoft Exchange -> (org) -> Global Settings

2)Right click Message Delivery -> Properties,

3) Clear delivContLength & Clear submissionContLength

I had to reboot the exchange server for this to take effect. If you wait 20 minutes or so, it will probably take effect.





It is what it is!!
