A friend of mine who is still on a dial up connection receives some large
attachments, like pps from friends and wants to limit the size she can
receive, what is considered a max size of file.



There is no max size, other than limits set by the ISP.

The favoured option is if the ISP has a web access, then set a filter on the
web site to move large messages to a created folder. Check occasionally,
download or delete as suits?

Message rules in OE can be tried, but I do not hold much hope of success.
