The MESSAGELIMIT extension of the Internet Message Access Protocol
(RFCs 3501 and 9051) allows servers to announce a limit on the number
of messages that can be processed in a single FETCH, SEARCH, STORE,
COPY, or MOVE command (or their UID variants), or in a single APPEND
or UID EXPUNGE command.  This helps servers to control resource usage
when performing various IMAP operations.  This helps clients to know
the message limit enforced by the corresponding IMAP server and avoid
issuing commands that would exceed such limit.
