MIMEdefang can be set up to do that...

action_replace_with_url($entity, $doc_root, $base_url, $msg, [$cd_data]) - Drop
the part, but save it in a unique location under $doc_root. The part is
replaced with the text message $msg. The string "_URL_" in $msg is replaced
with $base_url/something, which can be used to retrieve the message. 

You should not use this function in filter_multipart. 

This action is intended for stripping large parts out of the message and
replacing them to a link on a Web server.
