Hey Folks,

I am trying to set up my Exchange server to allow the max size of message to come in & out to 40mb. I have changed the setting on the Transport Setting to 40960. On the receive connector I set it to 40960. The send connector max message size has been set to 40960. In the user mailbox properties size for send/receive has been set for 40960.

We recently upgraded from 2003 to 2010 and this a issue that I need to get resolved because a lot of the e-mails we recieve are fairly large and a lot of them are getting bounced back.

I have done these setting in the EMC and thru the EMS. When I do it thru the shell I get the following message:
"Warning: the command completed successfully but no settings of 'Transport Settings" have been modified."

What am I missing? Please help!

Thanks
James

You also need to check the limits on the database. You can find this by going to Server Settings > Mailbox iirc.

If you want to allow larger send/receive sizes, here are the commands you will need to use (this is for 20Mb in this case so adjust as needed):

1. This will show you the name/size of the receive connector (then run the next command):
get-receiveconnector | select identity,maxmessagesize (Lists all receive connectors)

Set-ReceiveConnector “CONNECTOR NAME” -MaxMessageSize 20Mb (Sets specific receive connector)

2. This will show you the name/size of the transport connector (then run the next command):
Set-TransportConfig -MaxReceiveSize 20MB -MaxSendSize 20MB (Sets transport connector)

3. This will show the name/size of the send connector (then run the next command):
get-sendconnector | select identity,maxmessagesize (Lists all send connectors)

Set-SendConnector “CONNECTOR NAME” -MaxMessageSize 20Mb (Sets send connector)

got it fixed. I ended up disabling the send/recieve connectors and recreated new ones and that worked. Even though the conectors are configure exactly the same.... It was very strange. SO if they continue to work I'll be deleting the old connectors.

Thanks All!
