You need to set that at the top of your config to have that actually take effect. I ran into this same problem. For simplicity sake make it the first line of your config.

I have the $MaxMessageSize global directive set on both machines to 4096 (4k). Using wireshark between the machines, I can see that the message text I am trying to send (2694) is transmitted in its entirety. However, the syslog log file on the receiving end indicated the 2694 message was too big and was truncated to 2048, the 2k default. I believed that setting the directive as I did would affect the receiving size, but it appears not. How can I modify the message receive max size for an imtcp module?
