theYinYeti Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Hello, Now with POPfile, and with a local mail server, I have all I need to be happy with mail... EXCEPT that I only have a 56K modem connection to Internet, and I'm getting sick of those 1MB+ mails I receive from friends 'n' all, who have more and more ADSL (oh, and also those dozens of Microsoft patches, each 140KB big, or so...) So Here's my question: How can I tell POPfile (if possible), or any other free software, for that matter, to download from the POP server ONLY mails that are less than 1.4MB (the size of a floppy is the max I'm ready to download) ? Thanks for any advice. Yves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
