I don't think you want to do this, as you would lose legitimate error 
output as well. Also, if rt-mailgate is generating too much output 
(whatever is considered too much by sendmail), then something is wrong 
anyway.

What happens when you run rt-mailgate manually, feeding it a message 
with attachments on stdin?
