Limiting message parts

Would you rather avoid longer messages altogether? Specify whether or not a message should dispatch with a maximum number of message parts. Using the max_number_of_message_parts parameter, you can clarify a maximum number of message parts per batch.

It's also an option to configure a default max_number_of_message_parts at the account level. Contact your account manager to set a default maximum.

  • If a message is split into more parts than max_number_of_message_parts , it won't be delivered. The status code will display a 411 error.
  • If the max_number_of_message_parts parameter is specified when creating a batch, it will override the default value configured by your account manager.
  • When the max_number_of_message_parts parameter is set or the default value is configured, the number_of_message_parts parameter will be included in the recipient delivery report.
