Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have tried toenable mail to send larger emails attachement, i found a way to do this, through terminal on an appel support page. However whan i posted the command line in terminal, it answeres; SUdo: server admin not found, any ideas?
iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), iOS 7.0.4
The correct format of the command is
sudo serveradmin settings mail:postfix:message_size_limit = number
as discussed in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5627
However you need to do this command on the mail server and not on a Mac client.
Note: server admin is not valid it must be serveradmin

Thank yuo very much, I am not experienced within terminal, where do i write this on the mail server? i just open the terminaland past this in, but according to you it seems to be applicable somewhere else?
You would open Terminal on the mail server and type in the command with the number you require. What I was saying is that you do not type it on a normal users Mac, it has to be the mail server.
Hi John!
I am also trying to do this, but don't understand where to open the terminal. Would you be able to direct me in the right place?
Thank you!
Terminal is in the Utilities folder which is in the Applications folder in your hard disk. The hard disk is typically called Macintosh HD.
If your in the Finder you can go straight to the Utilities folder by using the "Go to" menu and selecting Utiltiies.
Thanks John! This is the error I'm getting from the Terminal? Am I not at the proper root/directory?
The message appears to be implying that the Mac you are trying this on does not have the server software installed on it.
This might make sense since you also seem to be running Terminal on a MacBook Air which would not normally be used as a server. You need to do serveradmin commands on the server itself.
ah. That would be it. Thanks John!!
When I do as written, i get the message sudo:serveradmin not found
