do you have access to procmail? would not this be a job for
procmail, or am i misunderstanding? you could simply filter
all those messages into separate folder, and then go look at
them once in a while to see if something of interest got
through.
while i dont remember (i am a procmail neophyte for the most
part) how to base rules on # of lines, but worst come to worst
you could either pipe into 'wc -l', or write a script if you
want to skip headers when counting lines (which would
perhaps be more reliable)
anyway, just an idea
