Mayonnaise is mostly oil and if it is olive oil or canola oil, then it has some health benefits, such as raising the level of "good cholesterol" a person has. But if it is "regular" mayonnaise, made from a type of oil high in saturated fat, then no, it is not a healthy food.

How much mayo do you put on a low fat sandwich?

Low fat means "less than or equal to 5% fat" - thus the amount of mayonnaise that you put in can not make the fat content of the sandwich exceed 5% (i.e not more than 5 grams of fat per 100 grams of sandwich). Thus the amount will vary according to the type of mayo that you're using, and whether the sandwich has any other fatty fillings (such as cheese).
