Example 1. Use spamc/spamd, it defaults to only scanning messages under
250k and you can change that limit with spamc's -s switch.
Example 2. What version of Spamassassin are you running? There's a
whole ton of tests based upon the ratio of image to text.

Subject: [SAtalk] Patterns and load, progress???
I've been working hard to build a network that stops spam from
entering mail boxes, but I'm getting tired of what appears to be
solutions to problems that don't need solving.
EXAMPLE:
Message comes in that is 13 Megs (big attachment) -> message
goes quickly through spamassassin, but sits in postfix's header and body
check filters for 30 minutes?
Question: Why even bother scanning something that big, no
spammer has that much bandwidth to waste on one attempt, a setting would
be nice to ignore spam on large messages.
EXAMPLE 2 - the worst
We've gotten VERY good at blocking text messages, I get almost
NON in my mail box, what I do get is the goofy subject line followed by
the single gif or jpg image of nasty stuff people want you to buy, if
that's not enough the drug companies come in there.
Question: Why not filter more when message size is LOW and image
content is there.
Can this be built into spamassassin or something else? How are
you all dealing with this?
Thanks,
Brian
