Okay thanks. I'll ask the company that handle that. But if the server
had that limit, wouldn't it send an indication (like the old ENQ/ACK)
to the mail client to 'wait' or similar ?

The current value is 225 for some reason. It seems a generic thing
though, that setting. If I lower it, other accounts may not retrieve
emails, it will just timeout all the time.
