Maximum Message size question

[Alex Neuman]

I for one thing that starting somewhere around version 5 *everything*
should be a ruleset... What does everybody else think?

The default could be that a %rules-dir%/configitem.rules exists for
everything that can be a ruleset, with the default set to whatever the
actual default is.

It would be a little more obvious and would probably help eliminate 80% of
the "can mailscanner do..." and "how do I..." questions that get answered
with "use rulesets".

No offense but it seems you have tweaked almost every setting there is
before you went live. The default for that one is 200 to prevent wild
bouncing. I don't see the point in trying to restrict how many attachments
users can send/receive, it's the size that matters, of the attachments
that is. :-) They can just put 400 attachments in a zip instead if they
like.
