A. Maximum size limits can be set on the Message Transfer Agent (MTA)for inter server traffic by selecting the General tab of the MTA configurationdialog of the server. The message would then be returned to sender in the eventof the message being to large however for the people on the same server thislimit is not used.
Limits can also be set on a per user basis for all traffic:
Start the Exchange Administrator Program
Expand the Organisation and select the Recipients branch
Select the user and select Properties from the File menu
Select the Limits tab
Its then possible to set outgoing and incoming maximum message sizes
Click Apply then OK
