Hello all!

I'm running BSDI 2.0 and have a UUCP connection to two sites, 
mainly for email, and I've run into a strange problem. I can't 
send mail messages from the BSDI machine to these sites via UUCP larger 
than 100k. The sites can send _me_ larger messages, but when mail 
messages larger than 100k originates on or must pass through the BSDI 
machine to these sites,(one of which is mickey), the postmaster (me)
gets mail from Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON> that:

552 propst@mickey... Message is too large; 100000 bytes max
554 propst@mickey... Service unavailable

How can I adjust the max file size?

Please email to the address below. Thanks for _ANY_ insight!
