Checking Maximum Attachment size in Client

Hi,

Our Domino will not route a message which is larger than 1 MB.

Once a user send a mail larger than 1 MB it goes to the server and then the message bounce is sent back to the sender. If somebody sends an important mail just before he leaves and replicate once, he tends to believe that the mail has been sent to the recipient. But if the message is larger than 1 MB he’ll get the bounce message only the next time he replicates.

So i want to somehow check the size of the message in the Notes client itself and if it exceeds the maximum size specified in the server, user can be prompted that this message will not be sent.

But i don’t know how to achieve this. Could somebody point me the right way?

Thanks.

Subject: AttachZIP restricts attachment size per user

Download AttachZIP to restrict attachment size for each user. It allows you to specify maximum attachment size for specified IBM DD groups.

i.e. AttachZIP end user profile: restrict attachment size

Maximum attachment size: 10240 KB for default users

20000 KB for IBM DD group 2: AttachZIP HR users

30000 KB for IBM DD group 2: AttachZIP Accounting users

40000 KB for IBM DD group 3: AttachZIP IT users

http://www.notesmail.com/AttachZIP

Otherwise, you can globally restrict message size for Notes users, and globally restrict messages size and attachment size for iNotes users as seen below.

IBM Notes: Restricting message size

  1. Open DD Server configuration settings document - Router/SMTP tab - Restrictions and Controls tab - Restrictions tab, then change field: Maximum message size

IBM iNotes: Restricting message size and attachment size

  1. Open DD Server configuration settings document, then click IBM iNotes tab and change field: Maximum attachment size (kb)

  2. Open DD Internet Sites (Web Site) document, then click Domino Web Engine tab and change field: Maximum POST data (in kilobytes):

  3. Open DD Server document, then click Internet Protocols tab - HTTP tab and change HTTP Protocol Limits field: Maximum size of request content
