Claws downloads the mail to a temporary directory before filtering,
so you'll need enough space on your disk for the operation to
complete.

There is something you can do to get over this. In the account
preferences, on the Receive page, set a low 'Receive size limit'.
Messages of a size over this limit will be partially retrieved. You
will be able to view the partial messages, and use a button (which
will be present above the msg view) to delete them or download them
fully.

with regards

Paul
