I'm presently using Outlook Express, but I would like very much to switch to 
Thunderbird; however, I have a problem that is preventing that.  I use dialup 
and I need to be able to limit the size of incoming emails.  In the past, I 
have downloaded emails so big that my connection timed out and that caused much 
trouble before I got it corrected.  To avoid this problem with Tbird, I'm 
trying to use the 'disk space' account setting which says "Do not download 
messages larger than XXX KB".  I attached a 200KB file to an email and sent it 
to myself.  Then I set XXX to 100 KB, but Tbird downloaded the email anyway.  
This feature works in OE which is the reason I still use it.  Assuming this 
feature works as presented in Tbird, what am I doing wrong?  Can anyone offer 
an alternative method of limiting downloaded email size in Tbird?  Thanks for 
your help.

John
