    Exchange - how to increase the maximum acceptable message size?

    I am getting the below SBS event log error and I am not sure what to do to solve this issue? Can anyone recommend something that can solve this issue? Thanks

    Log Name: Microsoft-Windows-Small Business Server/Operational
    Source: Windows Small Business Server 2008
    Date: 7/6/2009 8:34:14 PM
    Event ID: 210
    Task Category: Windows SBS POP3 Connector
    Level: Error
    Keywords:
    User: LOCAL SERVICE
    Computer: MyServer.MyDomain.local

    Description:
    One or more messages (1) were left in the 'email' account on the POP3 server 'plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com' because they are larger than the maximum acceptable message size (the largest message is 16827811 bytes). You can either connect to the POP3 account and retrieve or delete the messages manually, or increase the maximum acceptable message size in Exchange Server.

    Have you tried to change the POP3 connector message size in Small Business Server 2008 and checked if that worked?

    Thanks for the suggestions, that did the trick. In my case, the below commands were used to view the existing and set the max message size to 20MB:

    get-receiveconnector | select identity,maxmessagesize
    set-receiveconnector "Default WF1" -maxmessagesize 20MB
    set-receiveconnector "Windows SBS Fax Sharepoint Receive WF1" -maxmessagesize 20MB
    set-receiveconnector "Windows SBS Internet Receive WF1" -maxmessagesize 20MB
