Okay.

How do I disable that feature? I rarely send stuff to Sun. I mostly
send those files to other support companies or keep em to myself.

Check the docs. I don't have explorer here at the moment. I think there is a switch to turn it off or something to change the send size...

I also don't quite understand the reasoning - not overload? I mean,
the amount of data doesn't change, does it? If anything, it becomes
a bit larger and handling gets a bit more complicated, because you've
got to save the file contents to disk and manually decode what's in
the body.

As I remember it there was a limit on incoming mail attachment size to Sun at around 10 MB. But I'm not sure. However I'm absolutely sure about the send limit was introduced as we run into at many sites. It was around 4MB IIRC.
