Remove attachments by size

This action lets you remove attachments from an email based on their file size.

The Remove attachments by size dialog, with a comparison, a size and a unit

Compare​

Set how to compare the attachment size:

  • Greater or equal - At least the specified size
  • Greater than - Larger than the specified size
  • Less or equal - No larger than the specified size
  • Less than - Smaller than the specified size
  • Equal - Exactly matches the size you specify
  • Not equal - Any size except the one you specify

Size specification​

Enter a number and select the unit:

  • B - Bytes
  • kB - Kilobytes (1 kB = 1,024 bytes)
  • MB - Megabytes (1 MB = 1,024 kB)
  • GB - Gigabytes (1 GB = 1,024 MB)
note

Messages in a signed or encrypted container (S/MIME, PGP/MIME) are left untouched, because removing their parts would break the signature or the encryption. A message whose text merely begins with a typed PGP armor line does not count. The trace of a skipped action says that a rule on Message type Signed or Encrypted can block, quarantine or report such messages.
