man qmail-smtpd; set the /var/qmail/control/databytes file to the
message size you are prepared to handle (i.e. 256000). This is a global
value, irrespective of "direction", if your clients connect through
smtpd also, you can find a way to set the DATABYTES environment variable
to a different value (via tcpserver, or tcpd) for the "client" network.
Local clients using qmail-queue/qmail-inject/mailsubj/sendmail/etc are
exempt from this limitation.

The message will stay in the queue as a file of the qmailq user, which
probably doesn't have such a strict quota as normal users. If the user
doesn't clean up before the message expires in the queue, it will be
bounced. You can override this by using a special delivery program
which checks for the quota before delivering to the user.
