OK.

Does your MTA limit the size of incoming messages? Can it?

At some point in the next day or so, I'm going to make a modified
scripts/post script which will queue incoming messages in qfiles/bad
and then move them to qfiles/in only if they are under a certain size.
I'm really curious to see if that will help.

bin/mailmanctl could be modified to do this automatically, but
currently only does it on command (restart) or signal (SIGINT), but I
gather you're already running a cron that does a periodic restart.
