Actually, that error comes from email sending. They are not allowed to send that many big files. It is not a ticket-creating error. It is an error of a big file attaching in that email.

If I am not wrong Gmail Attachment size up to 25 MB in attachments.

Umh... I understand so the issue is generated because when user create an online ticket the attachment is attached to the email.. in this case is correct the alert is showed and in fact I cannot find ticket creation email confirmation message sent to the user.

OK so no much here we can do... in this case. Maybe I can decide to not attach attachment or if the attachment is bigger more than 25 MB should be good not attach to the email and add in the email an alert text that invite the customer to download the big attachment online, in the web interface.

This will avoid error showed in UI and avoid also ticket email confirmation to be not delivered.

For now I will remove all attachment tag in the email models. Also will be nice if you can add a script to indicate, under the attachment icon, how much is the max attachments size allowed. This should be keep updated in the case the size is edited in uvdesk.yaml
