Check Text

Review the Email Domain Security Plan (EDSP) or document that contains this information. Determine the maximum message send size. Open the Exchange Management Shell and enter the following command: Get-SendConnector | Select Name, Identity, MaxMessageSize For each Send connector, if the value of "MaxMessageSize" is not the same as the global value, this is a finding. or If "MaxMessageSize" is set to a numeric value different from the maximum message send size value documented in the EDSP, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Update the EDSP to specify the "MaxMessageSize" value or verify that this information is documented by the organization. Open the Exchange Management Shell and enter the following command: Set-SendConnector -Identity <'IdentityName'> -MaxMessageSize <MaxSendSize> Note: The <IdentityName> value must be in single quotes. or Enter the value as identified by the EDSP that has obtained a signoff with risk acceptance. Repeat the procedures for each Send connector.
