Actual Limit of Email Service: Inbound Attachment

Actual Limit of Email Service, Inbound Attachment?
Hi

We have developed a program using the Email Service to change the contents of inbound emails from customers into a cutom object records, and was wondering about the limit size of inbound emails.

Based on our research, we figured the maximum size for one or more files attached to email is 10 MB so decided to test this. 
The problem is that although we have sent an email with a single 16MB attachment, the Email Service was able to store the file in the Files object and the text content onto the designated custom object. 
We tried twice and both suprsingly worked.

So does anyone know what are the actual limitss for the Email Service's attachment files?
Thanks in Advance :)

Got a reply from Salesforce.

The limit for Email Service is 25MB for the entire email including the context and the attatchment. 
Any article that says the limit is 10MB is old and will be updated later it seems.

Leaving the question here for reference.
