Have you enabled leave messages on server and define like 2 days as the
keep time limit? Large messages are not deleted for me unless the server
time expires (2 days for me) or I manually delete them with the
dispatcher.

This is what I do exactly:
In my account properties, mail management settings I have:
Leave messages on server.
Keep messages on server for 2 days.
Receive only headers if message size exceeds 150KB.
I then enable delete message from server in all my filters.
What is really happening here is that TB! will not delete any messages
from the server unless:
a) the message has exceeded the defined duration of stay on the server.
The duration being defined by the 'keep messages on server for x days'
option.
b) directed to do so by a filter. A filter will not delete a message
from the server unless it has actually filtered the message.
Messages that exceed your defined size limit do not reach the inbox, so
they shouldn't be deleted.
WAIT, hold a minute!! I think I know what is wrong. You are filtering
the large message notification aren't you, and the filter that catches
these large message notifications also has the server delete option
enabled right?
Do the following and see if it helps:
Create a new filter and place it at the top of your filter list. I named
mine 'large message notifier'.
Source Folder : Inbox Destination Folder: Inbox
Filter strings:
String: "The Bat!" ; Location: Sender ; Presence: Yes
Do not enable 'delete message from server' for this filter.
