If you are talking about emails:This is a hard limit imposed by MSMQ which can’t be increased.
this is because notifications go through MSMQ, and there is a 4MB limit on MSMQ:

if you are talking about smartforms then kindly see the following to allow larger files to be uploaded

If you are talking about smartforms, the max size for attachments feature was added into K2 Smartforms Version 4.6.11.  Additionally the product documentation for K2 Smartforms Version 4.6.11 contains explicit instructions for how to increase the attachment size to larger than 16MB.  Please see this link.  http://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2smartforms/userguide/current/default.htm#SF-ViewControls-FileAttachmentWithProgress.html


 


Keep in mind that you should first make a backup of the web config file before you make the modifications described in the documentation guide.
