Read through the according rfc's. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0821.txt could match (else do a google search on "rfc +mail" without parenthesis) I didn't find anything about length limitation (but I didn't read it _very_ seriously) so I think it's theoretically not limited. But I could imagine that (once more) theory and reality diverge so that some mail-servers _have_ limitations (due to memory issues or whatever - I'm not a specialist here as I mentioned). If you have a domainname with e-mail address supporting wildcards, just try it out sending yourself one or two hundreds of mails. 190 loops shouldn't be bad.
