You must alter web.config to allow large posts, then update YAF host settings with attachment size limit.

Modify web.config. Find Line that reads

<httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0"/>[/code] and add [code]maxRequestLength = "15360"[/code] to it.  A SAMPLE line would read:
[code]<httpRuntime requestValidationMode="2.0" maxRequestLength="15360" />

This will set the ASP.NET Maximum File Upload size to approx 15 mb...

Then you have to set YAF config:

Login as your superuser account. Go to Host Menu >> Host Settings Tab -- halfway down is entry for Max File Size (in KB) - set it to less than or equal to the number you use in your web.config. Restart YAF...
