This is driving me crazy at the moment...
In MOSS 2007 when you use the WCM features to deploy a site from a staging server to a live server it copies across the changes, but doesn't delete any deleted pages!!
I'm still looking for a solution to this - and will blog about it when I find the solution - but until then if anyone knows of any solution - please let me know.... SharePoint is gonna make me loose my hair...

Incoming EMail - EMail Size Limits
I was reading through the posts on one of the Technet SharePoint forums and I found one where someone was sending e-mails to a email enabled list and having them rejected with:
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject: Test large attachments 5MB
Sent: 21/09/2007 22:24
The following recipient(s) cannot be reached:
testlist@company.com on 21/09/2007 22:26
This message is larger than the current system limit or the recipient's mailbox is full. Create a shorter message body or remove attachments and try sending it again.
As you can see an SMTP server was rejecting the e-mail because the attachment was too large. The poster had checked their Exchange server mail limits and the maximum document size within SharePoint, but couldn't find where the limit was being set.
In most Incoming email configurations you install an SMTP server on the MOSS box. The default configuration of the Microsoft server SMTP service is to limit e-mails to a maximum size of 2Mb so you must remember to change this if you want to receive bigger e-mails in SharePoint.
So - open IIS Admin, Right click the Default SMTP Server, go to Properties, go to the Messages tab and change the size limits as required.
Simple - but so easy to forget!

The Beginning
My full time job is as an IT Engineer for a small, global company. Since April 2006 more than 70% of my time has been dedicated to SharePoint and since Beta 2 Moss 2007.
We are currently putting the final stages together for the roll out of our SharePoint solution and given the number of problems we have had developing it, the (still) lack of decent documentation of many of the features (despite the communities best efforts) I have decided to put something back into the community and blog about all the trials and tribulations I have had with Moss.
Over the comming weeks and months I shall blog about the problems I encounter and the fixes I use.
If anyone has any specific problems with Moss then leave a comment and I'll see if I can cover your problem in a future blog.
