   • Select > to apply the policy rule to messages that are larger than the specified size.
   • Select <= to apply the policy rule to messages that are smaller than or equal to the specified size.
   For example, <= 10 MB applies the policy rule to all messages that are smaller than or equal to 10 megabytes.
4. Type a number for the size.
5. Select a unit of measurement from the following choices:
   • KB: Kilobytes
   • MB: Megabytes
