552 Message exceeds fixed maximum message size
After reviewing all of the posts on this issue we are still not able to resolve our issue.
Users limit is set to 50mb
Receive Connector is set to 200mb
Max Header Size is set to 128kb - Changed from default 64k
A specific domain sends a message that is 13mb and exchange returns it due to the message exceeding fixed maximum message size.
This same domain can send the message to gmail and my user then sends that message to themselves at our organization and is able to receive it just fine.

Alan, just wanted to say I could build a library on usefull information I have gathered from your posts. THANK YOU.
I have come across a similar kind of issue where we were not able to receive emails from our client
Document was 13mb(what a co-incidence)
We checked the exchange limit and made sure it was 50MB
We checked the bounce back message and it mentioned that it was more then the specified limit
After all the investigation we found the senders ISP had limit of 10MB for the emails flowing through them
Investigated bit more to find usually ISP keeps this limit and its different with each ISP
@sonickmc
Reading at your issue I wouldn't eliminate ISP issue
Hope this information helps
Regards
Munish

You will probably find that the following works:
Set-ReceiveConnector -identity "Default SERVERNAME" -maxmessagesize 50MB
Set-ReceiveConnector -identity "Default SERVERNAME" -maxmessagesize 50MB
