We are using WWIPSTUFF to automate emails and it is working wonderfully well for what we want. At least it had been. The attachments have been small in size. Today, instead of the expected email, we got

This message is larger than the current system limit or the recipient's mailbox is full. Create a shorter message body or remove attachments and try sending it again.

Using Outlook, I can send the attached file directly without problem.

The method which sends the email (wwipstuff.sendmail) is
DECLARE integer SendMail ;
   IN (THIS.cDLLPath) ;
   STRING cFrom, etc;

*** these are both empty
lcUsername = IIF(!EMPTY(this.cUsername),STRCONV(THIS.cUsername,13),"")
lcpassword = IIF(!EMPTY(this.cPassword),STRCONV(This.cPassword,13),"")

llResult=IIF(SendMail(lcSenderEmail, lcSenderName,;
            lcRecipient, lcCCList,lcBCCList,;
            lcSubject, lcMessage, lcAttachment,;
            lcMailServer,@lcError,lcContentType,THIS.nSMTPPort,THIS.cExtraHeaders,;
            lcUsername, lcPassword)=1,.T.,.F.)
I don't think the actual values are relevant. I can change lcAttachment back and forth and it works with < 3 MB files and not with > 3 MB files. However, in both cases llResult returns TRUE.

I also tried putting my userid and password into the application. I'm pretty sure I did that correctly because when I used an invalid password I got an authentication error. Unfortunately, it did not alter the results. I still got a result of TRUE but the error message was delivered to the lcSenderEmail address and the actual email was not sent.

Does anybody know if there is a built in limit in WWIPSTUFF or if this is a parameter within Outlook? We can fix the calling program not to build that large an attachment, but would obviously prefer to get the email program working with the larger files.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.............Rich
