4 MB is the MSMQ message size limit when processsing ASCII messages. (It’s 2 MB for unicode). This can’t be increased. You might have a look at [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms935683.aspx](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms935683.aspx)

I’ve never tried this but it may help you to resolve your issue.

You are still using MSMQ. That’s where the limitation is.

Can i use BizTalk adopter rather than MSMQ Bus Adopter to sending messages using MSMQ, like BizTalk Message Queuing Large Message Extension

(MQRTLarge.dll)

give me some example with source code.

thanks
