Would it be sufficient to simply not process large messages for that user?

The distro procmailrc.example file shows how set a limit on message size
processed in your .procmailrc:

:0fw:
* < 256000
| spamassassin

sets a limit of 256K, or you could pick a much smaller number.

Wasn't this the default when using spamc/spamd anyway?

-s max_size

Set the maximum message size which will be sent to spamd -- any bigger than this threshold and the message will be returned unprocessed (default: 250k). If spamc gets handed a message bigger than this, it won't be passed to spamd.

Although I should note that this manpage makes this a bit unclear. Is it expecting arguments like -s 250k or -s 250000 ? This isn't something I'd like to blindly experiment with.
