If the client (correctly) advertises the size on the MAIL command as

Note that even if the client is willing to do this, if you put a
*$&&*%$ Cisco router in between Sendmail and the client, the #*$&*&#$
Cisco router may block Sendmail's "ESMTP" banner and may ALSO block the
client's "EHLO" forcing it to fall back on "HELO" and no SMTP extensions.

Did I mention my feelings about #*&$*#$ Cisco?

You have not ;-)
