How do you know the attachments total 36,000 bytes? Are you
looking at it at the Explorer/Finder level and summing the file
sizes? Attachments get converted to uuencode or BinHex format
in order to pass thru mail gateways. This is done by your mail
system. File sizes expand when converted from bin to text. Your
36k files are probably 50k+ when encoded.

Attachments, whether MIME or simple embedded uuencoded files,
are just long blocks of text in the body of a mail message and
represent a contribution to the total size of your message.
The iconic representation that you are used to seeing is done
by your mail system. I think you are expecting to see some
magic icon in the bounce, which isn't going to happen. They
may not look like attachments as you are used to them, but
they are correctly included. The BOUNCE headers may interfere
with their iconic presentation in the actual BOUNCE, but once
sent to the list with original headers intact, it should appear
as was desired when first sent.

1) Approve the message and get on with life, OR
2) Increase the max_size threshold in your config.
