Re: Ot: how email size is established?

Oh its quite likely our administrator made changes, even without realizing 
the harm caused.
The other end is not getting the communications at all, instead I am told 
that my email cannot leave here, even if it could leave here previously.
Its quite emotionally disconcerting for me, because at the moment  almost 
all of my communications professionally and personally must be done via 
email.
