You didn't say if you are using the Outlook plugin, the POP/IMAP proxy,
or another implementation.  I don't know GyazMail.

I use spambayes as a procmail filter, and I have the following rule in
~/.procmailrc:

:0 fw:hamlock
* < 1000000
| sb_filter.py

That means: anything smaller than exactly 1 MB gets filtered by
spambayes, anything else passes unfiltered.
Larger mails are usually attached documents or photos sent by friends or
family.
