Maximum Message Size / Attachments.

[Martin Hepworth]

the default line needs to be last in the ruleset. the way rulesets are
processed is a bit like firewalls, in the it trundles down the list till is
finds a match and then stops reading the file. So by having the Default line
at the top it will never read any further down the file.
