2 Mo spam? is this a new trend? Can you put a copy somewhere? It may be possible to block this at the MTA level, if there are obvious spam patterns. otherwise, passing large messages to SA has performance consequences, so you probably don't want to do that unless you receive hundreds of such spam messages. If you have the resource, you could raise the limit. This depends on how you call SA.
