Normal file attachment size
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 2:57 pm
Hi All,
I found this in the documentation:
1. There is also a difference between the Original size and the Size in e-mail. The reason is that the software converts the file attachment into a sendable format (ASCII-Format) which is about 30 to 40 per cent larger than the original format.
2.Please be aware that the maximum file size is 1 MByte (due to the default settings of the MySQL database for BCOB data fields).
But I'm unable to attach a 448Kb PDF file because I receive "The file you want to upload exceeds the maximum file size for attachments." error.
If I put this pdf into zip it accepts the attachment.
Why it accept the compressed file?
How can I increase the attachment's size?
Can I change the data tpye of the field in the opemm's database to Large BLOB?
Thank you in advance
BG
