router question & mtu

I'm trying to figure out a problem with postfix
where incoming internet mail hangs at
"End DATA with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>" when receiving email
(local intranet xfers work just fine) and eventually
times out: "Timeout after DATA"

If i ping my router 192.168.1.1 i get responses just fine
or even if i use the WAN ip its ok,
but if i ping it "ping -s 1600 192.168.1.1" it doesnt respond
but "ping -s 1400 192.168.1.1" is ok (below mtu of 1500)
Is that normal?
My router is a linksys BEFSR11.
Anyone familiar with this?
Thanks
Eric
