Cannot change size limitation on outgoing mail for a user

[thabrock]

Running Exchange Serve 2003 on a Windows Server 2003 machine.

We have set a Global Size Limit on Send and Receive at 15 MB, but some users, like myself, need to send larger files, up to 30 MB in size.

So I make sure the Virtual SMTP Server is set to allow sent messages up to 30 MB and in ADUC, I click on the user and then Exchange General - Delivery Restrictions and make sure the allowed amount is at or over 30 MB.

Here's where it gets weird, I did this to my account and I can send the large files without a problem, but another user with settings that match mine exactly can not send large files. He gets the error: "The attachment exceeds the allowable limit."

If I were unable to send large files then I would know it was some sort of Global setting or issue, but since it does not effect me at all and I can not find any other setting that would effect the size limit of an individual user.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

No tips or ideas...?

What are your clients? By default outlook 2010 will only allow attachments under 20mb for example.

Outlook 2003. I can't find any limitation on message size in Outlook if there is one. Where would I find it?
