Of course,  but rather it is such a small percentage compared to the
good messages (bigger than 250 KB).

IMHO rather that it is not worth it to filter.
Only "prefilter" by very few RBL (in MTA - rest RBL are in SA)
and optionally clamav.

but everyone has their own approach based on its experience and
capabilities of the hardware :)

Do you have statistics (would be interesting) ? :

1. For messages bigger than 250 KB .   SPAM / HAM  %
2. Compare how many SPAM was catched (in %) is < 250 KB and > 250 KB

Thanks.

Best Regards
