 Topic: Max e-mail size and LOGSPosted: 25 November 2003 at 8:46pm |

Hi Roberto, Is it possible to include in the next version an option that when a message exceed the max size it put in the logs the size of the e-mail. Example: When I receive a big e-mail (my limit is 4096Kb) the logs show: 11/25/03 22:54:26:841 -- (1356) EMail from xxx@xxx to yyy@yyy exceeds the max msg size - rejected. Would be nice if it display: 11/25/03 22:54:26:841 -- (1356) EMail from xxx@xxx to yyy@yyy exceeds the max msg size - rejected. Size: 8073Kb Thanks, Abel. |

I would be interested in size processing as well, but in different context: - My organization receives very large (and I mean really large, can be hundreds of MB - mine models) mails. I need a way to bypass the filter for mails larger then x MB (where x is configurable) - the latest MS patch like virus flood was of a fairly narrow size band (144-146 kb). It would have been good to have a quarantine rule to stop this size from coming through, I have more then doubled my rules file to stop (most of) it Thanks Cris |

Cris, SpamFilter bypasses keyword checking for emails where the text portion (text or html encodings) are over a certain size (customizeable in the spamfilter.ini file). Attachments are not usually scanned. There is not an option to bypass all filtering rules for emails over a certain size. RE: your 2nd question, we do not corrently plan on implementing rules for filtering emails solely based on size other than rejecting emails over a max size. Roberto F. |

Abel, That is a good suggestion. I've added it to the wish list and will try to implement it in the next build. Roberto F. |
