[FW-1] Too Much Mail Data



I am repeatedly getting this message on the Information column "Too much
mail data" of the FW1 Logs. Any incoming attachment over 2MB is rejected.

Config details:

OS: Windows 2000 Advanced Server
FW-1: Checkpoint NG, FP1
FW-Cluster with Stonebeat

Incomming email Rule: Any to SMTP Gateway, service: SMTP with resource. I
have checked the FW objects and SMTP Resource properties to make sure my
attachment limit is 10MB.

But still SMTP packets are rejected.

P.S. my smtp.conf file still says 1mb maximum limit, even changing it
manually didn't help.

Any assistance is much appreciated.

Thanks
Val Thiagarajan

Subject: You are now subscribed to the FW-1-MAILINGLIST list


Tue, 7 May 2002 19:44:05

Your  subscription  to  the   FW-1-MAILINGLIST  list  (Mailing  list  for
discussion of Firewall-1) has been accepted.

Please save this message for future  reference, especially if this is the
first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list. If you ever
need to leave  the list, you will find the  necessary instructions below.
Perhaps  more importantly,  saving a  copy of  this message  (and of  all
future subscription notices  from other mailing lists) in  a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed  to. This may  prove very useful the  next time you  go on
vacation and  need to leave  the lists temporarily so  as not to  fill up
your  mailbox while  you  are away!  You should  also  save the  "welcome
messages" from the  list owners that you will  occasionally receive after
subscribing to a new list.

To send  a message to  all the people  currently subscribed to  the list,
just  send  mail  to  [email protected].  This  is
called "sending  mail to  the list,"  because you send  mail to  a single
address and LISTSERV makes copies for all the people who have subscribed.
This  address ([email protected])  is also  called
the  "list address."  You must  never  try to  send any  command to  that
address,  as  it  would  be  distributed  to  all  the  people  who  have
subscribed.  All  commands  must  be  sent  to  the  "LISTSERV  address,"
[email protected]. It is very  important to understand the
difference between  the two, but  fortunately it is not  complicated. The
LISTSERV address  is like a  FAX number that  connects you to  a machine,
whereas the list address is like a  normal voice line connecting you to a
person. If you make a mistake and  dial the FAX number when you wanted to
talk to someone on the phone, you  will quickly realize that you used the
wrong number and call again. No harm will have been done. If on the other
hand you accidentally make your FAX call someone's voice line, the person
receiving the  call will be  inconvenienced, especially if your  FAX then
re-dials  every 5  minutes. The  fact  that most  people will  eventually
connect the FAX machine to the voice  line to allow the FAX to go through
and make the  calls stop does not  mean that you should  continue to send
FAXes to  the voice number.  People would just get  mad at you.  It works
pretty much the same way with mailing lists, with the difference that you
are  calling hundreds  or  thousands  of people  at  the  same time,  and
consequently  you  can  expect a  lot  of  people  to  get upset  if  you
consistently send commands to the list address.

You   may  leave   the  list   at  any   time  by   sending  a   "SIGNOFF
FW-1-MAILINGLIST"  command to  [email protected]. You  can
also tell LISTSERV how you want it to confirm the receipt of messages you
send  to  the  list.  If  you  do not  trust  the  system,  send  a  "SET
FW-1-MAILINGLIST REPRO" command and LISTSERV will send you a copy of your
own messages,  so that you can  see that the message  was distributed and
did not get damaged  on the way. After a while you may  find that this is
getting annoying, especially if your mail  program does not tell you that
the message  is from you  when it informs you  that new mail  has arrived
from FW-1-MAILINGLIST. If  you send a "SET  FW-1-MAILINGLIST ACK NOREPRO"
command, LISTSERV  will mail you  a short acknowledgement  instead, which
will look  different in your  mailbox directory. With most  mail programs
you will  know immediately that this  is an acknowledgement you  can read
later. Finally,  you can turn  off acknowledgements completely  with "SET
FW-1-MAILINGLIST NOACK NOREPRO".

Following  instructions from  the list  owner, your  subscription options
have been  set to  "NOACK REPRO  SUBJECTHDR MIME"  rather than  the usual
LISTSERV defaults. For more  information about subscription options, send a
"QUERY FW-1-MAILINGLIST" command to [email protected].

Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list   of   the   available   archive  files   by   sending   an   "INDEX
FW-1-MAILINGLIST"  command to  [email protected]. You  can
then order these files with  a "GET FW-1-MAILINGLIST LOGx" command, or
using  LISTSERV's database  search  facilities. Send  an "INFO  DATABASE"
command for more information on the latter.

This  list is  available  in digest  form.  If you  wish  to receive  the
digested  version of  the  postings, just  issue  a SET  FW-1-MAILINGLIST
DIGEST command.

More  information on  LISTSERV  commands  can be  found  in the  LISTSERV
reference  card, which  you can  retrieve  by sending  an "INFO  REFCARD"
command to [email protected].
