You cannot edit a comment/response in RT. You have to to this in SQL
directly in the database ... to be used carrefully!

You can alsoe play with the option $MaxInlineBody:

=item C<$MaxInlineBody>

C<$MaxInlineBody> is the maximum attachment size that we want to see
inline when viewing a transaction.  RT will inline any text if value
is undefined or 0.  This option can be overridden by users in their
preferences.

=cut

Set($MaxInlineBody, 12000);



every text file with a length above this value will be replaced by
"Message body not shown because it is too large" in the web UI and
accessible with the download link.
