I'm aware of maxrcpts for outgoing recipient list size but where is the setting for incoming messages that could trigger this error response below ?

There are apparently 120 recipients in the To: line and I've got...

/etc/courier/batchsize:5000 /etc/courier/bofh:maxrcpts 5000 /etc/courier/module.esmtp:MAXRCPT=500

***

Your message has encountered delivery problems to the following recipient(s):

regl@blahblah.com Delivery failed 534 Message header size, or recipient list, exceeds policy limit.

Sent: (message data) Received:534 Message header size, or recipient list, exceeds policy limit.

This is a hard-coded limit in submit, so it will affect all messages, even locally submitted ones. Submit places a restriction on the total size of the header and the recipients therein. The limits in /etc/courier/batchsize, /etc/courier/bofh and /etc/courier/module.esmtp are not applicable here.
