mail problem

Im having trouble with sendmail and dont know quite where to look for
the solution. We have several mailing lists that are quite large (~300
names) that we mail to frequently. The mailing lists are on a Tru64
4.0f machine and are delivered to a 5.1b machine. It gets about 2/3 of
the way through and the rest are returned with the error

reason: Service unavailable). Ive pretty much narrowed it down to the size of the list. If I send the same mail through a similar list that is much smaller (~100 ) names then it is ok. It appears to be a resource problem or possibly a limit with sendmail but I cant seem to put my finger on it.....
Mailing list used is majordomo.

Any suggestions appreciated...
