In OE, click on Tools, Message Rules, Mail.
Select New, and in section 1, scroll down to "Where message size is more than size". Check that.
Then in section 2, locate and check, "Delete from server".
Next in section 3, click on the word "size", and you should be given an option to select your preferred size limit.
Give the Rule a name, then OK your way out of all.
Sounds like this should work, but be aware that if a friend sends you a large picture file or other graphics, they may be deleted also.
Does anyone know of a way to restrict the size of incomming emails using OE 6? Occaionally some one/a business/or spammer will send a large email, or a web page instead of just a link making me have to wait several minutes for a single message to d/l. Someone suggested that I could set a size limit in Message Rules, but that particular option is not available in Message Rules in my OE 6.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
I am using Windows XP Home and OE 6
Thanks. Have a great day.
