As a clarification, the individual file size limits are set by the recipient (in Membership>Advanced Preferences>Max Attachment Size), so the different results would only show up in individuals'?received mail. For example, a post might contain a 5 Mb image, and one recipient with no file size limitation will get the imbedded image, while someone with a?file size threshold less than 5 Mb?will only see a link.

As I recall, there is also?a separate setting for the maximum size that can be set to the group, but that's not what I was referring to. Have you compared the size of the attachments that were converted to links to the size of the attachments that went through embedded? These would need to be compared to the individuals' settings to see if the file transmission or link insertion?was in accordance with each individual's settings.
