As Ralf suggests, this is now a sendmail issue. Mailman has successfully
delivered the mail to sendmail per the above. How does sendmail deliver?
does it deliver directly or via a smarthost. If it is via a smarthost,
it is possible that the mail is being delivered to and relayed by
sendmail as a single message with 152 RCPTs, and the smarthost doesn't
accept that many RCPTs. If that is the case, setting say

SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 10

or so in mm_cfg.py may help.
