It's a sort of a game. You have to decide what the largest message you
want to go through the list is and set Sizelim= accordingly. If someone
then posts a message with an attachment that is longer than Sizelim=,
then LISTSERV will reject it. Otherwise LISTSERV will accept it. There
is no way to specifically reject attachments other than by overall message
size. I generally set Sizelim= 400 or less on most of my lists for this
reason.
