hy,

i am new in the scalix world and i am in heavy testing of evaluation version of scalix enterprise.
i know that i can limit the size of attachment from webmail (from /etc/opt/scalix/webmail/swa.properties) and i can limit the size o mail sent/receive from smtp session (from /var/opt/scalix/sys/smtpd.cfg and /etc/mail/sendmail.cf) ....
but i want to do that limitations per group or per user
can i do that ?

thanks.

One thing you can try is the internal routing rules in Scalix. This may not quite be what you're looking for as checking will only be done after the mail has been delivered to Scalix, but it will block it from delivery into the mailbox. Also it won't check the sizes of attachments, but rather the entire mail.

Have a look at the Message Delivery Rulesets section in the Admin Guide (p.80). What you will need to do is to choose a service level (eg. 10), then write a rule where the RECIPIENT-SERVICE-LEVEL = 10 (for incoming mail) and the SIZE is eg. 1M, and REJECT the mail. For outgoing mail you can use SENDER-SERVICE-LEVEL.
