Hi, Wouldn't it be nice if POP mail boxes could be set to automatically bounce messages over a certain size as soon as they arrive at the ISP :-) I doubt I'd get so many large attchments if I could do that, actually it's only one person who regularly sends me large attachments and I'm going to start sending them back 10 times when he does it :-) Or would that also be a denial of service?
