That's 25 kByte! Yes, that is your problem. Any mail larger than that
will NOT be processed by SA.

The default has been 500 kByte for a long time, and was 250 kByte
before. That line looks like an obvious *typo* to me. An ancient one.

Add another zero and it would have been about 256Kb.

That's why we think it's a fossilized typo.
