May 2, 2015 3:08 PM in response to Gordon8491by Roger Wilmut1,★HelpfulI don't see any way of doing this in Apple Mail on a Mac or on the iCloud website - I don't know about iOS. Whether another mail client would allow you to I don't know - some years back it was possible to delay downloading of attachments above a specified size until deliberately instigated, but with the advent of broadband this has become less necessry.

Someone might be on cellular and costly data plan - and away from their broadband - but there are people and areas where you cannot just assume, well everyone has DSL or better and we're not going to provide way to limit data usage.
