Literally, Mega-Spam. I just got a spam with 1MB of images.
My suggestion has been made before, but I would like to ask that it
now be taken a bit more seriously. SA needs an option to allow efficient
'partial' scanning of large e-mails, so that, for example, we can
peform all the valuable header checks, and maybe even scan for URIBL
hits within the first few hundred K of the body?
could, will and does mess up dkim checks and language checks.
That said, amavisd-new has a switch to do this already, and for the very
same reason.
(yes, it costs the scumbags nothing to have aunt martha and her zombot
send out 600MM 1MB spams)
