I *think* the reason is that the email delimiter magic used
may be found (with low probability) in a message, so I guess
this limit is used to prevent whole message parts being dropped
accidentally.

Maybe make this another config-parameter for the email gateway?
Setting the default to 10 and take 0 for infinite?

So communities who still use the usenet maximum of 4 can lower
the limit :-)
