Your SMTP server settings might not allow messages with attachments over a certain size. The error message can show up when processing incoming mail as well. Since the message is too large for the SMTP server to handle, the mail stays in the mailbox and errors like the above will be printed in logs.
Workaround
Try unchecking additional content you are trying to send and attach the information over support.atlassian.com
Resolution
- Change your general mail server to allow larger mail to be sent.
- Change your Exchange mailbox settings to allow larger pieces of mail to be sent.
