ok, sendmail is just the interface. Its been the first mail server
software so its binaries defined the standard interface.
You could have a look in /etc/mail/ or maybe /etc/exim[4] if there
are your config files.
But, what we were trying to tell you, its very likely that your
local machine has no size limitation for mails and its one of the
other servers en route to your destinations mailbox.
Have you looked at the header lines? Which server wrote the
notification, that your mail was too huge?

Exim4 on Debian uses /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.
Have a look if you find the files.
