Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You create a mobile device mailbox policy with an attachment size limit of 1MB and assign that policy to a user.

  • You set up an account on an iOS device and send an email message that has a 2MB attachment to that account.

  • You download the attachment from the iOS client.

In this scenario, you can download and view the attachment without an error message.

Cause
