Hi, I'm wondering what the downside of setting a large
message_size_limit are?

By "large" I mean 30MB, 40MB, 50MB

I think sendmail has a default of no restriction for message size - that
seems crazy, but maybe I don't understand the risks well enough.

some freemailers have a limit of 10 MB, so its perhaps a good choice to
set it for outgoing external mail, for inside a higher amount up to 50
sometimes makes sense

I'm aware of the range of limits, for example:

https://www.outlook-apps.com/maximum-email-size/

But can anyone answer my question - what factors should I consider when increasing the limit in the 30-50MB range (or higher)? Are there drawbacks to doing this?
