Limiting size of emails sent with CPanel?

You can restrict sending and receiving mails which are exceeding a certain size limit with cpanel by adding the line "message_size_limit" on your exim configuration file(exim.conf).



Example:


How can you restrict sending and receiving emails exceeding a size limit of 10MB?

Add this in the first part of your exim.conf file

message_size_limit = 10M

This setting should restrict both incoming and outgoing attachments over 10MB.
