Is there a trick to freeze such a message?
I did read the specifictation for a while to understand the last
expression (it matches every mail > 97 KB).... but did not find an
option to freeze those mails now.

I think about something like:
1. Let the specific router "freeze" every mail greater than 100 KB.
This would especially be great for offline-email systems, which
should hold bigger stuff going out, until the night when it's
cheaper.
2. Then late night I could call exim with "-qf" (?) by crontab to
request that all messages have to be thawed.

While dreaming about what exim could do... would you say bad idea 
or gimme a hint how to hold/send again (freeze/unfreeze)?
