+ Product: Horde
+ Version: 2.2 Stable
+ Platform: Mozilla 5.x
+ OS/Version: Linux
+ Status: NEW   
+ Resolution: 
+ Severity: normal
+ Priority: P2
+ Component: IMP

+ Summary: Large attachments fail ungracefully on attempt to bind
+ 
+ An attempt to attach a file of size 2 megabytes produces an error 
+ message, "attachments_size undefined at line 921 of compose.php3" and
+ loss of the already composed text in the form.  I haven't traced the code 
+ to the original failure point, but attachments_size is not set just prior to
+ that point if a total_size of 0 is returned, apparently from a prior failure
+ to effect the transfer.
+ 
+ Configurable limits on maximal size of attachments is probably a good
+ addition, but certainly a failure should be graceful.
+ 
+ However, the product is otherwise wonderfully robust, extremely well 
+ implemented, and an absolute joy to use.  Cheers to you all!
