small emergency -- odd error?

Subject: small emergency -- odd error?

I hate to send mail this early in my searching for an answer, but this has
been tagged urgent by a VP here, and you all know what that means.

He's trying to send out a message to about ten people. It's got a 7MB
MS PowerPoint attachment.

He gets a message back that says this:

From: System Administrator
Sent: Friday, January 07, 2000 5:17 PM
Subject: Undeliverable: updated road show presentation
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

      Subject: updated road show presentation
      Sent: 1/7/00 5:16 PM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

      'addressimportantplace.com' on 1/7/00 5:17 PM
            No transport provider was available for delivery to this
recipient.
...
(There's one message for each recipient, and the To: and CC: lines were
snipped for confidentiality.)

When the VP tries to send the message, I don't see anything go out to
importantplace.com, but I do see a connection from his PC to the mail
server (Sun Enterprise E250 running Solaris 2.6 and Postfix
19990906-pl09). I see this in the log:
Jan 7 17:36:43 washington.hq.audible.com postfix/cleanup[7029]: warning:
AEC411
0905: queue file size limit exceeded
Jan 7 17:36:43 washington.hq.audible.com postfix/cleanup[7029]: warning:
AEC411
0905: skipping further client input

Here's a postconf -n:
command_directory = /usr/local/postfix/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/local/postfix/libexec
debug_peer_level = 2
default_destination_concurrency_limit = 10
default_privs = nobody
default_transport = smtp
local_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
mail_owner = postfix
mail_spool_directory = /var/mail
mydestination = /etc/postfix/mydestinations
mydomain = audible.com
myhostname = mailbox.audible.com
mynetworks = 207.159.120.0/24, 207.159.89.128/25, 192.215.168.96/27,
192.215.168.128/27, 192.215.168.160/30, 208.47.215.0/24, 208.45.131.174/32,
209.3.125.64/27, 24.11.77.81/32
myorigin = $mydomain
program_directory = /usr/local/postfix/
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
relay_domains = $mydestination, dbm:/etc/postfix/popclients
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name
smtpd_recipient_limit = 10000
transport_maps = dbm:/etc/postfix/transport

I'm using the default message size limit, 10MB. Is that the same as the
queue file size limit, or is there something else that needs tweaking?

Many thanks,
-Adam
