Is the content all on one line without linebreaks? If so, then you may be
hitting the maximum line length. RFC 2821, section 4.5.3.1:

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2821.txt
"
The maximum total length of a text line including the <CRLF> is
1000 characters (not counting the leading dot duplicated for
transparency). This number may be increased by the use of SMTP
Service Extensions.
