Running W2k Advanced server with Exchange 2000. Checked thoroughly and there are no size settings specified in either the Global Settings, SMTP virtual server or the individual users Exchange settings (there are no connectors set up) This only happens to a few users but when they try to send an email bigger than 2mb it throws up an error "the message being sent exceeds the message size established for this user". Any ideas? Thanks David McKissick

As in, is this an external recipient? It could be the recipient's mail server.
Hi, This isn't a problem with external servers as it's happening when sending to another user on the (small) LAN. They've asked me to send the file instead and I've had no problems. Really puzzling and it must be something really obvious but can't find.

Very bizarre this is but it's now working!!! Haven't touched anything for a few days so it's all very confusing.
