    This is just to check if its possible to achieve receiving mails from Internet bigger in size than my Global Message Delivery settings?

    Exchange 2003 Sp2

    Global Message Delivery Settings

    Sending Message Size 30MB

    Receiving Message Size 10MB

    Individual User Receiving Size 30 MB

    We receive the 5.2.3 NDR when an Internet user sends a mail more than 10 MB to my internal user.

    I have got the answer from these article but does anyone has a workaround instead of changing the receiving Message Size limit on the Global Settings?

    Kindly Note:

    I know Global settings override when sending or receiving mails in your organization. But its an organizational requirement. Any Suggestions??

    Hi Akash,
    There are no workaround for this. The most restrictive setting will take affect.

    So what you can do is to raise the receiving message size in the Global Settings and set the more restrictive one on individual users (the opposite as what you have today)

    Get-TransportConfig will give you the configurations set at transport level

    Check for any limit there. Check send/receive connector for the limits.

    Also be in mind that, email clients/exchnage will add more sizes (for attachment compression etc.) to the actual message. Consider that also
