Anything one of the, say, 50 out of 5000, users get, should be forwarded to their o365 account. The lists used to create the various "mass emailings" unfortunately were created addressing the members as "To:" It's not the "size" apparently (as in bytes) despite the DSN message, it appears to be the number of addressees in the TO: of the original message. I say this as I was able to successfully forward one of the failing messages with the same recipient address in the Bcc, but with a blank To:. I just did that on a whim, not expecting a blank To: to be accepted, somewhere along the line. Sigh. There must be a number of work arounds, now that I have a clue. A better analogy perhaps: it's as if the Postal Service refused to deliver an envelope with one addressee because it contained another envelope with several addressees on it. Maybe it's just me. joe a.
