Hi again.

E2k7 defaults to 10MB for max send and receive size.
There are various places to change this.
I read through all the various help files, the Marc Grote article here, and other sources in other locations.
Here is the issue. Configured sendconnector and receiveconnecter for maxmessagesize:25MB.
Verified that with get-sendconnector | fl *.
However, clients cannot use OL2003 to attach anything bigger than 10MB.
So, I went looking.
Modified all the settings in set-transportconfig to 25mb.
Modified set-transportserver -internaldsnmasmessagesize:25mb
Checked the user objects to ensure that there were no deviations from the norm.
Checked the database/storage group to ensure that settings were correct - unlimited and no flow restrictions.
restart-service *transport
restart-service msexchangeis

Still, no attachment over 10mb allowed. We tried a 9mb attachment; worked fine.

What am I missing?

fixed it meself!

adsiedit based on recommendations of Lief Pederson...

Start adsiedit and locate
Configuration => Configuration => Services => Microsoft Exchange => First
Organisation => Global Settings => Message Delivery

Right click the Message Delivery container, and choose Properties. In the
Attribute list, locate DelivContLength and SubmissionContLength. I suspect
both values are set to something like 10240. If the values are present and
set, I want you to double click both attributes, and then click the Clear
button followed by the OK button. At this point the value should be <Not
set>.

Now, either allow for a replication cycle to go through, or force a
replication. Then restart the Exchange Services. Perform a test to see if
the actions performed yielded the desired results
