 * Maximum file size
-** The maximum file size of sent attachments is 5 megabytes on v1.1, v1.2 and master.  This is done because we are likely to crash if we try and send larger files.  {{bug|871897}} is about us switching to streaming for sending which would allow us to remove our send-side limitations.  Receiving servers may still enforce a size limit.  v1.0.1 has no size limit, but is likely to crash if files larger than 5 megabytes are sent.
+** v1.3+: Maximum aggregate size of all attachments is limited to 5 megabytes, but {{bug|871897}} has been fixed and so the app is capable of sending much larger attachments without crashing if the limit is relaxed.  (Tests included sending a 29MB video.)  We have not raised the limit because there are still potential memory issues with downloading large attachments in the e-mail app, mail servers frequently enforce maximum message size limits, and the larger the message the larger a chance of a send failure.
+** v1.1-v1.2: Maximum aggregate size of all attachments is limited to 5 megabytes, memory usage will be high.
+** v1.0.1: No size limit, likely to crash on 256MB devices if aggregate attachment size exceeds 5 megabytes.
