Help with Entourage-X Error 5552 temp mailbox

I have been getting a really strange ENT-X error message number 5552 so
I went to the FAQ page and found
Error 5552... Too Many Recipients (re: mass e-mails)

This did not compute as the error message I get says:
-------------------
Error:
Mail could not be sent using the account "[email protected]"

Explaination:

Mail error: The mailbox is temporily full; try again later
--------------------

I was trying to send to another Entourage user and it was NOT a mass
mailing. The message did have a 32 MB attachment. The progress thing
showed the file passing but when it came time to end the file, I got the
error message. I am not aware of an sbcglobal.net limit on the size of
attachments.

Does Entourage X create a temporary mailbox?

Does Entourage X have limit in the size of attachments?

I don't know whether SBC Yahoo has a limit, but if you're getting that sort
of error they likely do. Also, it's probably not a good idea to send
attachments of that size because they will likely be too big for the
recipient's mailbox, and could take a very long time to download. If you
need to transfer a file of that size, I would consider posting it on a
website if you have one or mailing a Zip disk or CD.

The message might still reside in the Outbox if it hasn't successfully sent.
Make sure you delete it.

I normally do not send such large files but we were both looking on to see
if anything went crazy. It was Ent-x to Ent-x both via DSL. Since I am not
aware of a Ent-X limit on attachment size it must have been at SBC Yahoo
even though we both POP mail.

As I said before the file passed but could not close (or end) and Ent-x
produced the strange error message that has nothing to do with " Too Many
Recipients (re: mass e-mails)"

I may try again today to see what size can be passed. I know 10 MB works.
