Message Size Exchange 2007

Hi to all,
I've an Exchange server 2007 sp3.

My account should receive, a message of 30MB from Internet

Now I've read these articles:

http://exchangepedia.com/2007/09/exchange-server-2007-setting-message-size-limits.html

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb684892(EXCHG.80).aspx

but I not receive yet the mail of 30 MB, but I receive mail of 10 MB (default settings)

I've set the value 30720 Kb in Transport and Connectors (send and receive) properties, NOT in User Properties

I receive always mail with error "Message size limit exceed"

Thank for your help

ASKER

Suggestions??

Since you've placed in the SBS Zone, I'll assume you have SBS 2008 which includes Exchange 2007
The SBS Product Team Blog includes an excellent walk through on this
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2008/10/28/how-do-i-change-message-size-limits-in-exchange-2007.aspx

Or get a Gmail address.

I haven't SBS.

I've a Domain controller server with 2008 R2 and other server with windows 2003 r2 and Exchange 2007 sp3.

while the artilce was from the SBS team (and your question is in the SBS zone) there is not SBS specific in the blog post. I'd encourage you to give it a look and see if there something you may have overlooked

ASKER

the original question was not in SBS zone, but only in Exchange zone.

I can see that it was placed in the SBS zone by a MOD..not sure why

But again, nothing in the link in my post is really unique to SBS...it will show you all the places where the message size must be changed

ASKER

yes, but i've already changed the message size settings in any place
(see the article in my post)

This is the cmdlet's result:

very strange...now i've set :
MaxDumpsterSizePerStorageGroup : 0
MaxDumpsterTime : 0

in this way it's disabled

Before it was setted to default value (18MB and 7 days).

18MB email size are received, but 30MB email size aren't received....returns back always this error:

Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 552 552 Unable to queue message (5.3.4 Message size exceeds fixed maximum message size) (state 18).

Any suggestions ?

It's not the dumpster size...it's the receive connector or rather I should say...one of your receive connectors is still set to 10MB

[PS] C:\>Get-ReceiveConnector | fl MaxMessageSize

MaxMessageSize : 10MB

MaxMessageSize : 30270KB

MaxMessageSize : 30270KB

MaxMessageSize : 30270KB

ASKER

yes, but that receive connector is disabled

ASKER

If the problem is the default connector, disabled (set to 10MB), why are received 18MB email size ?

ASKER

however, now I've set the default connector to 32MB and I've repeated the test....please wait...

ok...and I admit I don't do a lot with environments with multiple receive connectors or with some being disabled...looking forward to the results

ASKER

nothing...always same error ... :(

I do not know what to do or even imagine ... I cannot understand where is this limit for email >18MB ...

what are the results of running at the Exchange Shell:
Get-TransportConfig | ft MaxSendSize, MaxReceiveSize

also
Get-mailbox | ft Name, MaxSendSize, MaxReceiveSize

ASKER

very very strange....email of 21MB are received....where is the problem ???

Again I would suggest running the other two commands to see if something is being blocked there

ASKER

which commands?

From the Exchange Management Shell

Get-TransportConfig | ft MaxSendSize, MaxReceiveSize

also

Get-mailbox | ft Name, MaxSendSize, MaxReceiveSize

ASKER

but i had already run these commands (ID:35770065Author:MinoDCDate:16/05/11 04:54 PM)

However I have run again and this is the result:

Is your mail being handled by any third party service for anti spam or antivirus? In other words, your mail goes to another company first...gets scanned, then comes to you?

ASKER

NO. Mail flow is direct From ISP (I am using Google for the tests) to MyCompany. During the tests, the antispam and antivirus , for the mail flow, are temporarily disabled.

ASKER

It still not working.... :(

I think it's still the one receive connector that you have disabled...any reason it can't be deleted
or set the size to the same as the others

[PS] C:\>Get-ReceiveConnector | fl MaxMessageSize

ASKER

sorry for this absence ... but I had problems ....

Now I try and let you know, thanks
