I think it would be ideal to switch from hold to reject for these "large" messages. That isn't possible from the web interface (so far as I could tell). I have not had to directly administer any mailman3 lists, so I don't know offhand what the process looks like to configure that on a per-list basis as a mailman site admin. It may not be possible, but the option in mailman2 were pretty flexible and I suspect they are similarly so in mailman3. If we could make that change, then posters who send large messages would get a clear rejection rather than the held message reply which makes it seem like their message may be accepted. No matter how many admins/moderators we have, there will always be delays in replying manually which disrupts the conversation. -- Todd
