You can try to cancel and reduce, but if you wait a bit I end up approving
when it seems legit: I would get in touch with you if it was a very large
image that you could downsample, or if you include a large zip archive or
something like this, but a long thread with HTML/multi-parts answers can
easily reach the limit.
(I think we should raise the limit by the way).
