    how do blackberry's view images sent via gmail?

    do they resize them to fit screen? or just the width so it can still scroll down? or not at all?

    Enterprise Server > BlackBerry Server Configuration.

    2. On the Attachment Server tab, in the Configuration Option drop-down list, click Attachment Server.

    Concurrent

    Caching

    The BlackBerry® Attachment Service maintains the cache for 25

    minutes or until a new request exceeds the cache limit for that

    conversion process. If the cache limit is exceeded, the BlackBerry

    Attachment Service deletes the document with the oldest time stamp

    from the cache.

    To prevent multiple requests for the same attachment from using the

    first cached copy of the attachment DOM in a conversion process, you

    can set this drop-down list to Disabled.

    can be located in the document cache (as DOM) for an individual

    conversion process.

    This field specifies the number of conversion requests that the

    specify this value, consider the amount of available memory and the

    competing services on the computer that hosts the BlackBerry

    Attachment Service.

    Change the maximum file size for attachments that users can receive

    The BlackBerry® Attachment Service uses memory during the attachment conversion process. If users try to open large or complex

    attachments (for example, .pdf files and ASCII text files that are larger than 2 MB) or multiple attachments at the same time, you

    might want to limit the file size for attachments.

    1. On the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Attachment Service, on the taskbar, click Start > Programs > BlackBerry

    Enterprise Server > BlackBerry Server Configuration.

    2. On the Attachment Server tab, in the Configuration Option drop-down list, click Attachment Server.

    3. In the Distiller Settings section, in the Max. File Size (Kb) column, click the value for the distiller that you want to change.

    4. Type a value in KB.

    5. Click OK.

    Change the maximum dimensions for image attachments that users can view

    You can control the dimensions of image attachments that users can view on their BlackBerry® devices. By default, the BlackBerry

    Attachment Service sets a maximum width of 5000 pixels and a maximum height of 4000 pixels.

    1. On the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Attachment Service, on the Start menu, click Run.

    2. Type regedit.

    3. Perform one of the following actions:

    • If you are running a 32-bit version of Windows®, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Rese... In Motion

    \BBAttachEngine\Distillers\LoadI...

    • If you are running a 64-bit version of Windows, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6...

    \Research In Motion\BBAttachEngine\Distillers...

    4. Change the MaxWidth DWORD value to the maximum width, in pixels, that you want to permit.

    5. Change the MaxHeight DWORD value to the maximum height, in pixels, that you want to permit.

    6. In the Microsoft® Windows® Services, restart the BlackBerry Attachment Service.

    Changing how the BlackBerry Messaging Agent reconciles attachments to

    the messaging server

    The BlackBerry® Messaging Agent receives message attachments from supported BlackBerry devices and reconciles the

    attachments to the messaging server. The BlackBerry Attachment Service does not convert the attachments.

    The entries in the CMIME service book on BlackBerry devices indicate whether the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server supports

    attachments that users send from their BlackBerry devices. Users must have BlackBerry® Desktop Software version 4.2 or later

    installed on their computers to make sure that these service book entries remain on their BlackBerry devices during service book

    updates over a physical connection to a computer that is running the BlackBerry Desktop Software.

    By default, the BlackBerry Messaging Agent limits the file size of attachments that it can receive from a BlackBerry device to a

    maximum of 3 MB. If the BlackBerry Messaging Agent receives more than one attachment at a time, it limits the total file size

    of all of the attachments to a maximum of 5 MB.

    Administration Guide Changing how the BlackBerry Messaging Agent reconciles attachments to the messaging server

    118

    Data that a BlackBerry device and the messaging server send each other over the wireless network must be in packets that are

    no larger than 64 KB. If a BlackBerry device sends an attachment that is larger than a single packet, the BlackBerry device divides

    the attachment into multiple packets. The BlackBerry Messaging Agent caches all of the packets and sends the attachment to

    the messaging server after it receives the last packet.

    You can optimize the amount of memory and the number of transactions that the BlackBerry Messaging Agent uses when it

    receives attachments by changing the maximum file size of attachments or preventing users from sending large attachments.

    Users with BlackBerry devices that are running BlackBerry® Device Software version 4.5 or later can download attachments in

    any native format to their BlackBerry devices. Users can open and make changes to native file formats using an appropriate

    third-party application on their BlackBerry devices. Users might be able to open specific file formats using the media application

    on their BlackBerry devices.

    To manage network resources in your organization's environment, you can change the maximum file size of attachments that

    users can download to their BlackBerry devices.

    Change the maximum file size for attachments that users can send

    By default, the maximum file size of attachments that users can send is 3072 KB, and the maximum total for multiple attachment

    uploads in a single message is 5120 KB.

    1. In the BlackBerry® Manager, in the left pane, click a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server.

    2. On the Server Configuration tab, click Edit Properties.

    3. In the left pane, click Messaging.

    4. Perform any of the following actions:

    • To change the maximum file size for a single attachment that BlackBerry devices can send, in the Maximum Upload

    Attachment Size field, type a number that is between 1 and 3072 KB.

    • To change the maximum file size for multiple attachments that BlackBerry devices can send at one time, in the Maximum

    Upload Total Attachment Size field, type a number that is between 1 and 5120 KB and that is greater than the value

    in the Maximum Upload Attachment Size field.

    5. Click OK.

    Prevent users from sending large attachments

    If you prevent users from sending large attachments, they can only send specific attachments—certificates and address book

    entries—that are less than a single packet.

    1. In the BlackBerry® Manager, in the left pane, click a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server.

    2. On the Server Configuration tab, click Edit Properties.

    3. In the left pane, click Messaging.

    4. In the Maximum Upload Attachment Size field, type 0.

    5. Click OK.

    Change the maximum file size of attachments that users can download

    Certain versions of the BlackBerry® Device Software enable users to download attachments in their native formats (for

    example, .txt for a text file) to their BlackBerry devices. Users can open and make changes to the downloaded files using an

    appropriate third-party application on their BlackBerry devices. Depending on the file format, a user might be able to open the

    file using the media application on the BlackBerry device.

    The default maximum file size of attachments that users can download to their BlackBerry devices is 3072 KB (3 MB).

    1. In the BlackBerry Manager, in the left pane, click a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server.

    2. On the Server Configuration tab, click Edit Properties.

    3. In the left pane, click Messaging.

    4. Click Maximum Download Attachment Size.

    5. Type a number, in KB, between 0 and 10240 (10 MB). If you type 0, users cannot download attachments in a native format

    to their BlackBerry devices.

    6. Click OK
