Maxmailsize don't work?

Maxmailsize don't work?

[Claudio Prono]

Hello all,

I have a problem with my mlmmj version 1.2.15-17.1. When i try to send a 
mail (in that case of 28.357 byte) i recieve a message like this:

Hi, this is the mlmmj program managing the mailinglist

xxxxx@domain.com

I'm sorry to inform you that your message could not be delivered to the
list. Your mail was rejected due to the size limit of 20000000000 bytes.

Thanks.



What is the problem? The size is not more than 20000000000 bytes, so what's wrong?

Please help me, is pretty urgent.

Thank you,

Claudio Prono.

You have set the maxmailsize value to 20 gigabytes. If you are on a 32
bit platform this is too big for the integer in which the value is
stored.

Unless this really is the limit you want to enforce (Sounds like
insanely big mails), try removing a 0 or two to get a smaller value.

I don't know if this is the problem but it is the most likely
explanation.

The value of 20000000000 bytes is just an example, i have tried to set 
it to a smaller value, but the problem persist. Seems like the control 
of  the maxmailsize have something wrong. If i remove the maxmailsize, 
it's all ok, but is just  a work-around. Can be a bug of mlmmj ?

Thank u,

Claudio.

I'm not sure about my guess, but can you try it again with one order
of magnitude less (2000000000).
It could be limited by integer???

Ciao
Chris

I'm using it without any problems, but with an older version
of mlmmj (1.2.14).

My limit is set to 1258291 bytes (~1.2mb).

Have you tested various sizes like 32000, 65000 etc?

I have the same feeling as Chris that maybe
a too-small integer variable is overflowing.
