# re: SharePoint 2007 Maximum Limitations

I don't know if you've run into this, but there seems to be a limitation of 2,048 characters in the body of an email sent from the SendEmail activity in a custom workflow for SharePoint.

I'm not sure if there is something I am doing wrong or if this is truly a limit.  If it is a limit, it makes it hard to include much content in an email that is formatted in HTML and CSS.

Maybe this is something you can verify?

Thanks in advance!

in WSS 3.0 in a single wiki page you can only have 100 'wiki links'.  On #101, it will still link, but will not validate that the page exists.
