For example, in Outlook, assuming no transcoding is involved, you can attach a 150 MB size file and send it, and assuming the recipient is also hosted in the cloud and is configured to receive 150 MB size messages they’ll receive it. Second, email clients differ in their support for sending large messages.

For example, most messages sent between mailboxes hosted within Office 365 won’t get transcoded, so they can be a full 150 MB in size. If your message is going to get transcoded, then it will be limited to 112 MB maximum. Yet, not all messages are subject to transcoding. Even though the maximum allowed message size is now 150 MB, this is the maximum message size threshold after any potential transcoding has occurred. This results in a 33 percent larger message than when it left your outbox. This happens because as a message traverses different mail systems, transcoding (or Base64/MIME conversion) may occur, most commonly between on-premises Exchange and the cloud. There are a few technical details you should know when sending and receiving messages larger than 25 MB.įirst, as a message routes from mail system to mail system it can get larger than when it started. Get-MailboxPlan | Set-MailboxPlan -MaxSendSize 75MB -MaxReceiveSize 75MB (For mailboxes you create in the future.)

And while replicating the updates across the service typically takes an additional 15 minutes, allow up to 30 minutes after the update process is finished before testing out the new settings.Įxamples of the common commands you might use to customize these settings via Remote PowerShell include: ACTION Updating thousands of mailboxes at a time can take a while to complete-a rough rule of thumb is around 5 to 10 minutes per 1,000.
But if your organization has more than 1,000 users, you may want to make these changes via Remote PowerShell. If your organization is comprised of less than 1,000 mailboxes, you’ll likely end up using the Exchange Admin Center user interface to make changes. Use the Exchange Admin Center or Remote PowerShell Click the edit icon, then under Message Size Restrictions, click View details and then specify the maximum message size. Then from the Bulk Edit pane under Message Size Restrictions select Update.įinally, you can customize a single mailbox by selecting recipients > mailboxes and then select a user’s mailbox. To edit multiple mailboxes select recipients > mailboxes and select multiple mailboxes. You can then specify the maximum message size for new mailboxes (those you create in the future). Simply select recipients > mailboxes then click “.” and select Set default message size restrictions. You can change the default for your organization by adjusting the default message size restriction. You customize the message size in the Exchange Admin Center, which requires global administrator role privileges. Whatever custom configuration you want to apply, whether for one, some, or all your mailboxes you can do it-as long as it’s between 1 MB and 150 MB. Do you have a hybrid mail configuration (some mailboxes on-premises, some in the cloud) and you want a consistent 10 MB restriction regardless where the mailbox is hosted? We have you covered. Want to restrict students in your school from sending messages larger than 5 MB, while the faculty can send up to 50 MB? No problem. Want to go wild and allow everyone to send and receive 100 MB size messages? Go for it. You can customize the maximum allowed message size for any and all your mailboxes however you see fit. So instead of us foisting a one-size-fits-all setting onto everyone, we’re now giving Office 365 customers the freedom to choose the maximum size setting that’s right for them. It turns out that some folks want an even smaller setting than 25 MB and many don’t want to change the current setting at all. The default maximum message size for Office 365 mailboxes is still 25 MB, and we aren’t going to change the setting on existing accounts.
