Configure Workflow Email Size Limit

You can use a new profile option named “Workflow Mailer SMTP server size limit” to limit the size of Oracle Workflow email notifications, including the email body and any attachments. For example, if your mail server restricts the size of emails that can be sent, you can use this profile option to ensure that Oracle Workflow emails remain within the allowed size.

Out of the size limit you specify in this profile option, Oracle Workflow reserves 200 KB for the email body. If adding the attachments would cause the email to exceed the specified size, then Oracle Workflow does not include those attachments in the email, but instead displays a note in the email indicating that one or more attachments could not be included. In this case, the user must access the notification through the Worklist pages to view the attachments.

Steps to enable and configure

Set the “Workflow Mailer SMTP server size limit” profile option to the maximum size you want to allow for Oracle Workflow email notifications. See Setting Up Notification Mailers, Oracle Workflow Administrator's Guide.
