On message size, i think most of systems won't accept per email more than 20/30MB. Most email clients or all, will crash with such message size, specially the *outlook family. -----Original Message----- From: dbmail-bounces <at> dbmail.org [mailto:dbmail-bounces <at> dbmail.org] On Behalf Of Jonathan Feally Sent: segunda-feira, 31 de Dezembro de 2007 21:13 To: DBMail mailinglist Subject: Re: [Dbmail] Re: DBMail 2.3.0 released While there has been quite a bit of discussion already on this topic, and I know the purpose of this was to avoid collisions, has there been any thought in a configuration option to skip the blob comparison and assume they are the same? Perhaps a size threshold that has to be exceeded to skip the check. My only thought is a large attachment - say 100-200 MB - has to be read from the db server and into memory. This would be very taxing on the network and memory of the whole system. For small shops with the db on the same box, its not that big of an issue, but for larger shops with a lot of email traffic, it could become an issue. A value of "0" should mean check every part, while of value of "16777216" would mean check all parts less than 16 MB. As file sizes increase, the likely hood of a size and hash collision is going to decrease, especially since larger attachments are rare compared to the 1.5 MB jpeg. -Jon Paul J Stevens wrote:(Continue reading)
