minimum attachment size?

My morning summary of bad emails, as reported by MailScanner, showed a
pile of "attachment too small" rejections of local users.  I had set the
value to zero.  While we discourage Outlook on our campus (we support
Eudora), we have Outlook users anyway.  I have asked our helpdesk to
correlate complaints about "attachment too small" rejections to Outlook
usage.  Something is going on here with 4.35.10.  I have turned this feature
off for the moment.
