	Opera doesn't seem to offer that option.  I use Apple Mail, which  
lets me set a size limit for messages.  If it goes over the size, a  
box come up asking if I want to download it.  Seems like that would  
be a good feature for Opera to adopt.

	A work around if this happens often is to check your mail via web  
mail before you download it, but that's a hassle.

	You might suggest to your relative that they post the attachments to  
a web page and just send everyone a note and the URL.  I do this  
instead of sending people large attachments.
