Exchange 2013 Mail Size Limits

Question

I am having an issue with setting the max send and receive size on Exchange 2013.  I keep getting the following error when I attempt to send a 20 meg file server to an internal exchange account OR if I attempt to send a 20 meg file from the exchange
server to an external account: 
#550 5.3.4
ROUTING.SizeLimit; message size exceeds fixed maximum size for route ##
I have checked the mail sizes and below is the report.  I currently have both send and receive set to 100MB.  Is there some other setting in 2013 that I am not aware of?

Hello Landfish,
Good Day...
The output gives the information that Size limit set for Receive and Send is 100 mb, but setting could have changed. So you can follow the below steps to resolve the issue. 
There are basically three places where you can configure default message size limits on Exchange:
Organization transport settings
Send/receive connector settings
User mailbox settings.
To check your server’s current limit you can open Exchange Management Shell
Try the below commands to check the Message quota size limit
get-transportconfig | ft maxsendsize, maxreceivesize
get-receiveconnector | ft name, maxmessagesize
get-sendconnector | ft name, maxmessagesize
get-mailbox Administrator |ft Name, Maxsendsize, maxreceivesize
To change the above size limits based on your requirement.
Set-TransportConfig -MaxSendSize 200MB -MaxReceiveSize 500MB (Size is based on your requirement)
Attachment size limit
To set up the rule you can use the below PowerShell cmdlet, as the method is quite simple
New-TransportRule -Name LargeAttach -AttachmentSizeOver 20MB -RejectMessageReasonText "Message attachment size over 20MB - email rejected."
