That's going to be subjective.  Technically speaking,
binkd mailers can transmit files of almost any size,
though I suspect a lot of software would have trouble
with files over about 2GiB. But socially speaking?
Most packets I see on my system are under a kilobyte;
I figure 2K to 4K would be reasonable.
