Bug#320345: exim4: Misleading bounce report when message_size_limit exceeded

[Oliver Elphick]

Package: exim4
Version: 4.50-8
Severity: normal

When a message is rejected because message_size_limit is exceeded, a
misleading bounce message is sent.

The bounce message says: "No transport provider was available for
delivery to this recipient".

Here is the log data:
2005-07-28 16:26:13 1DyAFn-0005OR-Ab rejected from
<brian at bray-healthcare.com> H=(FINANCE) [192.168.2.194]: message too
big: read=64016485 max=52428800

I cannot see anywhere to change the bounce message.
