A user shouldn't care about *how* their attachments are sent, only 
that they are sent.

The method of sending attachments is a policy decision and must be 
made by an admin.

Allowing users to select how to attach their messages was/is a 
usability nightmare.  (There may be a few advanced users where this 
option might make sense, but nowhere near enough to justify 
maintaining in the code.)

Would be very helpful for our system a way to allow users to choose to 
send attachments as links like in older versions.
Our users often send attachments (up to 1-2MB) to our mailing lists 
that obviously have a lower weight limit.
Configure IMP with a lower treshold of 10MB  to send all attachments 
as links has a strong impact on their usual behavior.
