I am on v2.1.5. Right now the attachments are moderated by size. I have
it set to 2M. Anything below goes through - anything above gets put in
the moderate queue. That is what I don't want. I'd much rather anything
below 2M go through, anything above 2M gets dropped outright.

Not exactly the solution I'm looking for. A little more broad than
wanted.
I guess what I'm really looking for is something similar to the
generic_nonmember_action tag which allows me to choose what happens when a
message breaks the rules. In that case, I can tell it to reject the
message alltogether. I guess a tag like message_toobig_action or
any_message_that_would_require_moderation_action - or similar
functionality. Times like this knowing python might help I guess :)
