1. read your log-part again
2. read the answers you get
3. try to understand smtp

postfix says LOST CONNECTION after EHLO
this is NOT closing connection
it means "client closed connection"

the server is NOT rejecting anything because THAT would be logged
the server would reject if the clietn is ignoring the EHLO answer

but usually mail-clients are not dumb and closing the connection
aftther the server answer of EHLO because

a) the client knows how large the message is
b) the client knows what size the server accepts
c) the client do not throw megabytes over the line if he knows it will fail

and before you reply again and tell us how smtp works read the answers
you get and do not remove the relevant parts in your quotes!

what do you thin is the "250-SIZE 36700160" answer after EHLO for?

here again:
[harry@srv-rhsoft:~]$ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 srv-rhsoft.rhsoft.net hardened ESMTP
EHLO local.rhsoft.net
250-srv-rhsoft.rhsoft.net
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 36700160
250-VRFY
250-STARTTLS
250-AUTH CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN NTLM
250-AUTH=CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN NTLM
