I tried to send an e-mail to a specified address. The e-mail was not
received because the attachment was too big. However, I did not get any
notification that the delivery had failed. The SMTP server that I used to
transfer the e-mail was exim 4.60. Here's the relevant part of the main log

This shows the message being delivered, from exim's point of view. If
the mail got lost after that point, I have to assume it's the fault of
pmx.abv.bg (assuming that is not also munged) and not a problem on the
sending MTA's side. Assuming it is the sending side under discussion,
there's not much more you can do.
After this I tried to send an e-mail with the same attachment via another
SMTP server, which failed as well but I this time I got a notice of
delivery failure. Have I misconfigured exim?
Magic 8 ball says "ask again later".
I am not sure how one could know, given the amount of information
presented, but I don't believe that's the problem. Did the second MTA
get a 5xx at delivery time?
I think the second MTA got this:
smx.abv.bg: 552 sorry, that message size exceeds my databytes limit
Did it get a bounce message later? Do you
have exim configured to reject bounces for some reason?
How do I check if exim is configured to reject bounces?
