Correct.  The question is why do you want to limit this?

No, at this time, you can't.  You can limit it with your MTA (sendmail,
postfix, etc) after the upload.  You could also limit it, with various
problems, if you put user quotas on the upload directory (assuming your
system supports quotas).

New versions of IMP do seem to calculate the total size of attachments, 
so I suppose we could be done in the future...  But as of now, there is
nothing....
