Looking at your original error message, I just noticed that it said

 > Oversize notes/user msg ... (n=198957, limit=131072)

So the current limit is 131072 bytes = 128 kB. Now, the default value 
for MAXMSG_NOTES is 256 kB, so unless you lowered that it doesn't
make sense.

However, the 'user' channel is 128 kB by default. So it's probably that 
one that needs changing. So add a

    MAXMSG_USER=256

to xymonserver.cfg and see if that helps.

The error message should be clearer about which parameter to tweak, and 
MAXMSG_USER isn't documented in the man-page. I'll see about fixing that.
