Package: spamc Version: 3.4.2-1+deb10u2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream When we ran mail servers on 32bit systems a default of skipping spam checks on the rare messages that were more than 500k in size made sense.
Nowadays messages larger than that are normal and scanning a 10MB message is not a problem for CPU use or memory allocation on most systems. I believe that the default should just work for most people who don't have unusual needs. Running spamassassin on a 32bit system nowadays is an unusual situation that the users could be expected to tune for. Running it on a system with many gigs of RAM is more the usual case. For the benefit of other people with this issue, a line like the following in /etc/default/spamass-milter will make it take 10MB messages (the "--" and following is the relevant part).
