No, you can send them as long as you like.  You just need
to make a quick change.

At, or around line 108 of /usr/local/majordomo/config_parse.pl
you should see a line like below....

        'maxlength',            '40000'

Change it to whatever you like.

After you do this, delete the config files for the
lists under /usr/local/majordomo/lists.  They are
generated when the first message is sent, and are
used from there after unless you make a change to
the list, and the config file will regenerate.

You can either remove them or edit them in a
similar fashion.
