Exchange 2010 Archive Database - Attachment Sizes
Greetings. We recently set up personal archiving on our Exchange 2010 on-premises server. Mail over a certain age is moved automatically to the user's archive folder in an archive database.
Around the same time, I lowered the maximum send/receive message size from 30MB to 10MB.
One of the members of my test group informed me today that archiving is working perfectly, except that messages with large attachments are not being moved.
Are these two related ? Is there a connection between the server moving messages automatically and the send/receive size on the Send Connector and Transport ? Interesting.
Thanks much.

Excellent. Not good news for me, but exact answer to the question I asked.

I'm wondering if I can run a script to change the max/send receive every night before maintenance is done, then change it back in the morning ... sneaky :-)
yeah.
set as a scheduled task before the exchange maintenance is scheduled should work. Then another with 10MB instead of 30MB to run right after. You'll just have to make sure the exchange management snap-in gets added prior to that line.
