Using Attachment Size Criteria

The Attachment size is criteria allows you to create rules that take actions on messages based on the size of any attachments to the message.

On the Criteria screen, select Advanced to display the advanced criteria.
Select the Attachment size is criteria.
Select > or <= from the comparison drop-down list.
- Select > to apply the rule to attachments that are larger than the specified size.
- Select <= to apply the rule to attachments that are smaller than or equal to the specified size.
For example, <= 10 MB applies the rule to all messages that are equal to or smaller than 10 megabytes.
Type a value for the size.
Select a unit of measurement from the following choices:
- B: Bytes
- KB: Kilobytes
- MB: Megabytes
Note:
The Attachment size is criteria is applied to the total size of each attachment.

For example, if a message contained two attachments, one a 3 MB attachment and the other a 1 MB attachment, a rule that deletes attachments over 2 MB would delete only the 3 MB attachment. The other attachment would not be deleted.
