Unfortunately, that's kinda a generic error that you can get in sendmail due
to lots of wildly different problems.... I don't think it's because the
message is over size limits (sendmail should give a specific error then),
but you might start by seeing what the limit for your server is and making
sure you're under it, and by fsck'ing your mail spool on the server.
