34751	2002-02-07 05:49:00	In outlook express click on tools then message rules/mail. then new rule. now in field 1 choose ' where the message size is more than size'. and in field 2 choose what to do with it ie do not download it all you have to do now is decide on the size of file not to download	Guest (0)

Tazzie, you were a little off the mark there - the only checkbox I have in the Advanced options is to break apart messages over a certain size which is where I kept looking to do what I wanted. Thanks for trying though!	Guest (0)
