Why is the official documentation not so clear?

I cannot speak for MS, however I am glad this helped you out.

Wonder if you can help me!

My OWA is not letting people send message over 5MB and this is proving to be a pain.

I have seen an article about it on the net but I am not sure how to do it. Have you heard about SP1 breaking the "unlimited" message size in OWA?

Cheers

Catherine

Can they send larger messages when using other methods? Owa message size limits are configured via a web config file

that is the article I was talking about. They can send what ever they like internally but if some one is using OWA out side the office (or even if you try it inside using the owa url) you get a message saying that the attachment was over 5MB and so has not been attached. I have checked the limits following the article above and they are set to unlimited.

In the article he mentions recreating the vitrual drives from the command line, I dont not know how to do this.

Will following the other steps work?

Thanks
