Kelly,
Here is what I found out... I have a quota on my mail partition of 10 megs
per user.. I tried this and when they received a 10meg mail message and
they tried to download it it createed an error. Because sendmail that I
run copies the file to .user.pop when it does this copy it bombs out.. I
set it at twenty megs each and so far ok.. If I have to fix the mail box
for someone then I'll let them know at that time their mail was bigger than
10megs...
