>From the 8.6.12.1 release notes I found this section of changes that
does what you want (this change occured at 8.6.6, which is after
the Sendmail book was written.)

        CONFIG: Allow declaration of SMTP_MAILER_MAX, FAX_MAILER_MAX,
                and USENET_MAILER_MAX to tweak the maximum message  
                size for various mailers.

You'll need to build a sendmail configuration (.m4) file to take
advantage of this... see sendmail/cf/README on how to do this...
