You just have to set preferences in your mailing programme (like Entourage, Outlook etc.), so that messages over XXX kb will not be transferred to your computer. Since a long text-only e-mail is up to - let's say - 25/50 KB (html/plain), set your mailer to transfer anything below 60 KB. In case you miss something (like a .tiff) because it's too large, you can always get just this message and switch back the filter on. Or just use a Macintosh ;-) Cheers!
