There is no such limit that I know of - I have IMAP folders with more
than 5000 messages which I can read.
You might be running into a client or server bug.
You can turn on client imap protocol logging to see what's going on by
setting the following environment variables
NSPR_LOG_FILE=c:\tmp\imapio.txt
NSPR_LOG_MODULES=IMAP:5
and then opening one of these folders with > 2000 messages, shutting
down. Then, you can either send me the log, or open a bug and attach the
log (after removing anything private in the log that you don't want
everyone to see :-) )
