I was testing around last night to try to determine the size limit on the message body and discovered that when you add characters to the subject or addressee, you're given a lower allowable length for the message body. The message body length limit was in the ballpark of a thousand characters. So it appears that the size of a mail message is limited to 1KB, including the header information (addressee, subject, attachments). I didn't want to add this to the article though since it's based solely on observation and testing.

Mail Size
I was testing around last night to try to determine the size limit on the message body and discovered that when you add characters to the subject or addressee, you're given a lower allowable length for the message body. The message body length limit was in the ballpark of a thousand characters. So it appears that the size of a mail message is limited to 1KB, including the header information (addressee, subject, attachments). I didn't want to add this to the article though since it's based solely on observation and testing. Can anyone confirm? -- Sekoia 18:56, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
- Probably 1000 characters even, as that's the same as the bio length (including carriage returns as a character) and they seem to like to repeat limitations a lot. No confirmation though, just gut feeling. ~ User:Aggelakis/Sig1 19:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
- Isn't the bio 1024 characters? User:Thirty7/Sig 23:23, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
- According to The Players' Guide to the Cities/User Interface/I.D. Screen the bio is 1023 characters. -- Sekoia 00:01, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
- So, essenitally I was right... but in the wrong direction, it can't be greater or equal to 1024.
