No, but spamc will by default skip the scanning of any message over 250k. Such messages just pipe through with no changes. There's no limit in terms of SA as to how big a message you can pipe through. I get emails with 100mb attachments just fine. Trying to get SA to scan really large messages by modifying the 250k threshold is generally a subject to approach with caution, as it causes the size of the spamd child to expand considerably. However, the setting is tweakable on the command-line to spamc.
