I have a problem after changing the message_size_limit to 100MB.
I have this error all over my logs:
Apr 25 12:01:26 mail postfix/local[28532]: fatal: main.cf configuration error: mailbox_size_limit is smaller than message_size_limit
Apr 25 12:01:27 mail postfix/master[27830]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/local pid 28532 exit status 1
Apr 25 12:01:27 mail postfix/master[27830]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/local: bad command startup -- throttling
here is my postconf | grep size
berkeley_db_create_buffer_size = 16777216
berkeley_db_read_buffer_size = 131072
body_checks_size_limit = 51200
bounce_size_limit = 50000
header_size_limit = 102400
mailbox_size_limit = 2621440000
message_size_limit = 104857600
and my postconf -d | grep size
berkeley_db_create_buffer_size = 16777216
berkeley_db_read_buffer_size = 131072
body_checks_size_limit = 51200
bounce_size_limit = 50000
header_size_limit = 102400
mailbox_size_limit = 51200000
message_size_limit = 10240000
It seems that postfix takes the message_size_limit from the main.cf but the mailbox_size_limit from the default value stored "somewhere"...
It is bugging me since months and my logs are crying 
Furthermore it seems that being 'fatal' the pid for postfix is killed and restarted (I wonder if it takes a hit on system performance as it happens even 2 or 3 times per minute)
HELP!!!
