The "size" attribute value specifies the message size that the client
specified in the MAIL FROM command (zero if none was specified). With
Postfix 2.2 and later, it specifies the actual message size after the
client sends the END-OF-MESSAGE.
Okay, it looks like if you are using an old version of postfix then
postfix does rely on the client telling it the size of the email. But
with postfix version 2.2 or newer postfix computes the size itself.
