I'm curious as to how many of these messages are inline-mime images, and how
much this has to do with mucked-up mime bounds detection out of spamassassin
(if it even does so, I'm not quite sure it does).   Granted, 2000 bytes is
still pretty small when you come down to it, but it might we worth seeing
how much time you save truncating encoded images -- mime-decode the message,
truncate the weighty bits, re-assemble...

Or I guess you could even just parse out the first X bytes of a mime-section
and feed that into SA...

Good luck, and keep us posted.. :)
