I've had a few spam runs do this to me too. The largest spam I have ever
seen was ~250KB; it was an image spam that included many slightly
different versions of the same image. I assumed it was a mistake by the
spammer but it might also have been to bypass the SA limit. Almost all
the messages sailed through.

As a countermeasure to this, I ended up adding more ptr/helo checks
using dynastop which has helped to block considerably more connections
before they get to the data stage.
