Specify a large enough bounce_size_limit.
If you disagree, provide concrete evidence:
- "postconf -n" evidence that the bounce_size_limit is set to some value X.
- logfile evidence that Postfix receives a message of size Y less than X.
- logfile evidence that Postfix returns a smaller message than Y to the sender.
