I have to tell her, blindfolded, how to tell the size of the message she is sending. She uses btinternet's yahoo mailer, and I haven't a clue what she can see there. :-(On Thu, 2008-07-03 at 22:06 +0100, Anne Wilson wrote:My daughter needs to send me a large file.

Since it says MTA I'm thinking that it's probably postfix. Can someone please tell me what parameter I'm looking for? Thanks I have reams of documentation printed out.

Just set it large until she sends you the file, and then set it back. How's that for blindfolded? -- MailScanner is like deodorant... You hope everybody uses it, and you notice quickly if they don't!!!!
