Please consider adding/adjusting your list definition for * SIZELIM=
Not doing so not only causes the problem that you mentioned, but many
other significant problems: needless bounces from subscribers' mailboxes
that can't handle those LARGE files; network delays; bounces that need to
be dealt with by the list-owner, aggravated subscribers who had to
download the stuff.
Check your archives for the size of legit. postings and set SIZELIM
accordingly.
