Resolving the issue: 5.3.4 Message size exceeds fixed maximum message size

April 9th, 2008 · No Comments

We recently discovered that several emails, we were expecting, were being rejected by our Exchange Server 2007 and giving the following response:

SMTP command failed when talking to server.domain.com: <<< MAIL FROM:host@remotedomain.com SIZE=16164910
 >>> 552 5.3.4 Message size exceeds fixed maximum message size

The resolution was to go into:

  • Exchange Server Management Console
  • Organization Configuration
  • Hub Transport
  • Locate the appropriate Receive Connector
  • Adjust the value of the Maximum Message Size (KB)
