50mb is a somewhat standard limit anymore

[–] reddthat@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you have a reference for that? Gmail is 25...

Gmail can receive 50mb files even though it can only send 25mb files

365 supports up to 150mb files

A lot of organizations (such as colleges like this one) set their limits to 50mb

On an anecdotal note, I always set at least 50mb limit for the organizations I manage in 365.

Ah! How interesting... work$ has been a Google shop for a while thus the 25m limit. Good work for o365 to enable the increase.

Email is such a fickle system. I couldn't imagine mobiles downloading 150m attachments when they only have a few GB of space...

Maybe im just too old...

With 128 already the most common storage size and 256 becoming that in the next few years, I don't think a few GBs of free space is right

[–] reddthat@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

I agree. It's just I forget that people use IMAP and choose to not download their data to their devices and leave it on servers that they don't control. 🤷

Also at 150mb, and maybe a 10gb storage allowance it doesn't leave much room for the actual text content 😂
