Another great feature of MIMEDefang is action_replace_with_url. When the
student decides to send the 55-meg powerpoint to all 150 people in his
class, instead of copying it 150 times, MIMEDefang will strip the
attachment, place it in a web directory, and add a note with the URL.

We do this for attachments over 2 megs, and leave them out there for 30
days.
