You can adjust maximum message size (including attachmet size) per message. Is there an exchange daily sent message limit per user? Can a max limit be put for a user to send messages but with a total sent message size of maximum 10 mb limit per day? Is it possible via existing exchange settings or can it be managed by a script? Thanks in advance for your responses.

Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

According to my exchange server administrator, the answer to your question is yes and no. You cannot limit a person to the amount of emails that they send per day but you can limit the amount of the size of the email that they send. So, if a person has a 50 MB file and you limit him to 5 MB, he will have to send 10 emails to send the full attachment of the file. That’s about the limit you have on a customer.

Thank you for your response.

But thr limit must not be per transfer, the person may send 50 e-mails but the total daily size of the total e-mails must not exceed 10 MB per day. Is this possible? If then, how can this be set, via a exchange setup menu, via a script, can you please give more explanation?
