I don't fully understand what you are trying to limit, most sendmail size 
limits are set either globally, or by protocol.  The General setting is set 
in you .mc file with:

confMAX_MESSAGE_SIZE    MaxMessageSize  [infinite] The maximum size of messages
                                         that will be accepted (in bytes).

Otherwise read through the page on the options here and you can refine the 
size limit by the protcol/mta:
