As it says in that post, scrub_nondigest is an all or nothing feature.
There is no current mechanism for scrubbing only those attachments
greater than a given size.

That FAQ is about applying content filtering and/or scrubbing before
testing the message for a "too big" hold. It does nothing about only
scrubbing attachments over some size.

Essentially, yes.

The scrubber stores attachments in the list's archive which is normally
on the Mailman server. If you want them stored elsewhere, you should
probably look at a custom handler to do the scrubbing and also to only
scrub attachments over some size.
