By "safe", though, it's a bit unclear what you mean, but this should
help. Here's my spam corpus broken down by size in bytes.
count bytes
--------------------------
1 524288 - 2097152
5 262144 - 524288
3 131072 - 262144
92 65536 - 131072
152 32768 - 65536
589 16384 - 32768
1974 8192 - 16384
5048 4096 - 8192
7063 2048 - 4096
3862 1024 - 2048
273 512 - 1024
2 1 - 512
--------------------------
19064 all sizes
There is relatively more ham in the 512-1024 range and much more ham at
sizes larger than 16384 bytes. Using large size as a rule never really
worked all that well, though.
256k seems like a good limit. 128k would be quite good too.
