You might, but I don't know what that limit would be...My inbox is currently looking like: --snip-- bwalton @ pinkfloyd : ~/Maildir $ lc total 3.1M drwx------ 2 bwalton user 496K Apr 29 2008 cur -rw------- 1 bwalton user 1.2K Apr 28 2008 dovecot-uidlist drwx------ 2 bwalton user 2.6M Apr 14 12:04 new drwx------ 2 bwalton user 4.0K Apr 14 12:04 tmp bwalton @ pinkfloyd : ~/Maildir $ ls -lA new/ | wc -l 36413 --snip-- Big (notice the size of the new/ directory), but not huge. Poll times increase linearly though, which one drawback to the current approach of not moving mail into cur/ when it's detected.
