OT anecdote:
I run my division's mailserver, and my boss called me a couple of
years ago with an error Thunderbird was throwing. Tbird was telling him
the attached file was too large. He wanted to know who set that and
whether I could "fix" it. (We use postfix MTA, which has a pretty
generous default limit, 10MB or something similarly insane.)
I told him it's set to a "reasonable" default, but that it's
configurable, and what did he need? Like Dave said, I also mentioned
that anything much bigger than 100KB should probably go on the webserver
for download.
Turned out that he was trying to *email* a 4GB DVD image.

Does MICROS~1 Virus Transfer Protocol (aka "Outlook") have a virus size
