I believe that ESMTP will display (immediately after the EHLO) information
that includes the maximum size of the E-mail that can be accepted, so that
the mail client can escape at that point without wasting the bandwidth. Of
course, not all E-mail clients would be so kind, but it would kind down
quite a bit on the waste.
