I see you are using Pegasus, Steve. You can limit the size of your
mail downloaded by Pegasus from any of your pop3 accounts:
Tools | Internet Options | Receiving (POP3) {tab}
Enter an amount in the box that reads "Do not download mail larger
than: [ ]KB"
You can then use the selective download feature of Pegasus mail to
peek at the sizes of messages on the server and delete those on the
server too large to download. That does not bounce the message back
to the sender, but at least you do not have to download those large
messages.
As to your original question, I feel sure that most free pop3
services would take any size message that fit into your allowed
mailbox space. So the smaller the mailbox, the better chance you
would have of bouncing large messages.
