That's how it is implemented. If you use

Max email attachment size = 1000000

then attachments below 1 MB are sent as attachments, and if the attachment is above 1 MB, then only a link to the attachment in the elog is sent.

Wouldn't it make sense for ELog (by default) to still notify, but not send the attachments by e-mail if the size limit is reached?

Hi Jacky,
if I read the source code correctly then the maximum size of a base64 encoded email is hard coded to be 10 MB in elogd.h (recompile after changing it):
#define MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH 10*1024*1024
But I think that an 2.2 MB image should easily fit into that.

Hi,

I am doing an inline image that is about 2.2 MB.  When I do a submit, I got the following message:

Error sending Email via <i>"<email server>"</i>: Entry size too large for email notification.

May I know what is the limit of the entry size and how do I change it?  Thank you.

Jacky
