Be aware that ''email size'' is not the same thing as ''attachment size''. Binary attachments to email are encoded using techniques that result in email sizes that can be as much as 30% larger than the original attachment. Most major email clients (Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Outlook) allow you to enable a "message size" column in the message list that will show you the size of your email messages ([http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,48366.msg241720.html#msg241720 More]).

=== Change the number of logs retained for qpsmtpd and/or sqpsmtpd ===
The normal retention is 5 logs for both qpsmptd and sqpsmtpd. This may or may not fit all installations. This information is pulled from bugzilla.
Check your config to see if any change has been made to the default log retention rules. Note there are different rules for qpsmtpd and sqpsmtpd. You have to make changes to both as you require.
config show qpsmtpd
If the KeepLogFiles property isn't listed, the default rules apply. Determine how many logs you would like to keep and apply that to the following example. In the command below, 15 is used to keep 15 qpsmtpd logs.
db configuration setprop qpsmtpd KeepLogFiles 15
Restart multilog with the following.
sv t /service/qpsmtpd/log
Check that your setting saved.
ps aux | grep qpsmtpd | grep multi
Look for the line that ends with /var/log/qpsmtpd and verify the number after n equals your KeepLogFiles property from above.

Whether this issue is really a problem to end users, depends on how much you "value" your mail. For a home user having their own mail server, it is probably not a great problem if some messages should happen to go astray, but for all other classes of users, you should really avoid running a mail server on a dynamic IP, without implementing a suitable queueing workaround as suggested. Some ISPs change the IP very infrequently eg yearly, so in those cases it is also not a significant problem. Many/most ISP's will issue a new IP every time a connection is lost & re-established, so these situations are more problematic.
