MaximumJournalSize provides access to the Message Queuing journal storage limit. It is relevant only when UseJournalQueue is true. Setting this property modifies the Message Queuing queue. Therefore, any other MessageQueue instances are affected by the change
If you store messages in a journal or dead-letter queue, you should periodically clear the queue to remove messages that are no longer needed. Messages in such a queue count toward the message quota for the computer where the queue resides. (The administrator sets the computer quota.)
