I used to as well.  But it's a tedious task and I've not
made the time to do it in the past few years.

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.
