The maximum size of a message that can be sent is the minimum size limit of the MTAs the message passes through. So your local sendmail may have no limit, but your smarthost or the remote MTA might, and in that case the remote server (which presumably is not under your control) is the one imposing the size limit. There is also the possibility of your connection having problems with prolonged uplink transfers. The easy way to test that is to simply upload a file of the same size as the message when encoded, to the server in question (be sure to disable any compression that may be in use), and see if that works. -- Michael Kjörling .. michael@xxxxxxxxxxx .. http://michael.kjorling.se * .....
