Viewing Message Limit Policies

Message limit policies are for the maximum size of attachments, the maximum
number of messages per day, and for the total each user has received.

Setting a message limit is useful for protecting mail servers against malicious
attacks, such as email bombs. All messages are counted against this limit,
including legitimate and quarantined messages. The count is approximate, so
it’s suggested only for values over 100.

See “Viewing Message Center Settings” on page 536 for additional information

Note:

This example uses the Administration Console batch command syntax.
