Public bug reported:
After upgrading 14.04 to 16.04 I couldn't send big emails with
attachments, I couldn't use google drive. Sometimes lowering the MTU
worked.
I was able to get uploading of large files working again by playing with
MTU probing and discovery:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_mtu_probing
echo 1024 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_base_mss
Basic MTU related issues should be setup by default, perhaps interfaces
need to updated during upgrade?
Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6
Without enabling tcp_mtu_probling I couldn't upload large files over
HTTPS and SMTP w/ TLS.
