    How to set maximum email attachment size in exim email server?

    The exim parameter "message_size_limit" defines the size of email attachment.

    This can be set in the exim's main configuration file /etc/exim.conf (the path for exim.conf on cPanel server). Open the file and add following line in this file if you want to set the size 10MB.

    message_size_limit = 10M

    Save and exit the file and restarte the exim service.

    /etc/init.d/exim restart

    On cPanel servers, this can be done from WHM

    => Go to WHM >> Main >> Service Configuration >> Exim Configuration Editor

    => At the bottom, click on "Advanced Editor"

    => put the line : message_size_limit = 10M on the first text box

    => Click on save.
    Verify the setting by following command

    #exim -bP | grep message_size_limit


    Output should be

    message_size_limit = 10M

    Note : The default email attachment size for exim email server in the cPanel / WHM is 50MB.


    Thats All
