The buffer for send_message() automatically adapts to the amount of
data sent.  Note however that the return value from send_message(),
which indicates whether or not the messae could be sent right of in
its entirety, is slightly different when the networking package is
installed (see the documentation).  I suspect that the problems you
are experiencing have something to do with this.
