    In the Additional Actions section, you can configure extra actions.

    Select Add a log entry if you want events that trigger this policy rule to be logged to the message policy log. Events are displayed in the log as key/value pairs with the form user_<key>=<value>, where user_ is added to beginning of the assigned key. The message policy log is accessible through either FTP backup or syslog.

    • Select Add or Replace to configure whether a log entry will be added or replaced.
      Note:
      If you select Add, there can be multiple entries of the same key, but with different values. For example, if multiple policies trigger, entries similar to the following will appear: 
      user_policy=strip_suspect_attachment
user_policy=quarantine_for_spam

      If you select Replace, and multiple log entries with the same key are present, all of them will be replaced.

    • In the Key text box, enter the key that you want to assign to this log entry.
      Note: Keys will be logged with the prefix user_. Keys may only contain alphanumeric characters, or the underscore ("_") character.
    • In the Value text box, enter the value that you want assigned as the key for this log entry.

    You can choose arbitrary key/value pairs.

    The actual setting on the appliance is  configuration / policy / smtp options / general

    Keep in mind this size represents the total file size when mime encoded.. I have seen cases were some files have encoded to 200% of the original file size.. a good rule of thumb is 40%

     

    for example, if you wish to allow a 15 meg attachment you should allow 19-22 megs.

    this should also be reflected downstream,  you do not want 50 megs on the gateway and 10 megs on exchange. 

     

    If you export the maillog search for reject,. or reject and size.. 

     

    If you don't export or just want to check a particular message

    under the search tool, change it to mail logs

    enter your info for the message, subject name etc.

    then left click on the message to bring up the preview window.. about half way down it will clearly say "rejected for file size limit" 

     

    cheers
