You would need to write a Custom Function in order to actually remove 
large attachments. However, what may be useful is the setting "Zip 
Attachments" in MailScanner.conf, as this will make it replace large 
attachments with a zip file containing the attachments. This preserves 
the attachments while still usually making the message a lot smaller. Is 
this of any use to you instead?

If you were to write a Custom Function to remove large attachments, the 
"Zip Attachments" code would certainly show you how to do it.

If you are prepared to pay me a decent rate, I will write the Custom 
Function for you...

Best regards,
Jules.
