XADM: Cannot Limit the Message Size Submitted by an Anonymous User (173561)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q173561

SYMPTOMS

There is currently no way to limit the size of a message that is submitted or posted by an Anonymous User.

MORE INFORMATION

The current design of the Microsoft Exchange Information Store does not limit individual message sizes. Individual message limits are controlled by the Microsoft Exchange Connector and Message Transfer Agent (MTA) components. The only limits that currently exist in the information store are mailbox and folder limits.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5.0, and 5.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
