I like ries idea. So I would suggest introducing this change with
"bytes" and then add a generic "modifier conversion method" to t3lib_div
later which can then be used on that (and other) settings.

Yes, I thought a bit about it, but the previous variables change the
"mode of operation" of formmail (thus "secureFormmail" and
"strictFormmail"), which this is a formMail "setting". So my "self+1" is
still for "formmailMaxAttachmentSize".

So a quick poll. What do you prefer?

- formmailMaxAttachmentSize
- maxAttachmentSizeFormmail
