[OT] - Size limit rules

    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

As long as you are running Perl 5.6.0 or newer, you should be okay. Do a 
"MailScanner -v" after installing MailScanner (or a "perl -v" before!) 
to check.

And the answer to your second question is: You can use "fromorto" in a 
rule. For example:
FromOrTo:  some
user at some.domain  100000
in the ruleset file.
