I am pasting the pf snippet here.

PF does not regulate the size of eMails.  Did you see an entry in your
PF log about a blocked eMail attachment?  I seroiusly doubt it.

pass in quick log on fxp0 from any to  $mail_server
pass out quick log on fxp1 from   any to $mail_server

pass in  quick log on fxp1  from $mail_server  to  any
pass  out quick log on  fxp0 from  $mail_server  to any

1) You're logging, but didn't give any log output
2) keep/modulate/synproxy state -- read about them, they will simplify
your ruleset greatly
3) Please post the entire ruleset if you expect help
4) Traffic is permitted from any to your mailserver (any port, any
protocol) -- is this desirable behaviour?
5) Why are you using the 'quick' keyword?

Try this:
pass in log on fxp0 proto tcp to $mail_server port 25 flags S/SA synproxy state
pass out log on fxp1 proto tcp to $mail_server port 25 flags S/SA keep state

Or, better yet:
pass out quick tagged PERMITTED modulate state
pass in on fxp0 inet proto tcp to $mail_server port 25 flags S/SA
synproxy state tag PERMITTED


If there is no attachments, I can send mails and receive mails. But only
problem is there with attachments.

What I need to do ? Is there anything to be done with "scrub" entry ?
Now i have not added scrub entry in the fire wall.

We would never know -- you didn't post your entire ruleset.
