issue is Mac's with mac mail cant send attatchments greater than 10 meg

Mac's with "outlook for mac" dont have this issue
Windows pc's with outlook dont have the issue
outlook web access dosent have the issue

The size linit from within exchange is 40meg

Is there something differnt about mac mail at all please?
 
I don't use Mail anymore to know for sure but I would not be surprised at a limit. Mail already does some automatic file sizing on image attachments if not tweaked in preferences. Apple does a pretty good job at hand-holding users and keeping then from doing silly things.

Do you really want to support users sending large attachments? Email is the most inefficient method for binary file transfer.
