ripmime, what is the upper limit of attachment count ?
Hello all,

As we have some senders that attach a big number of mail attachments, I
would like to know what is the upper limit of attachment count. I searched
into the code, but have not found the answer.

Thanks in advance, and have a nice day,

Marc Bleuwart :-)

There isn't really a limit to the attachment count (well into the thousands is entirely possible).

There is however a recursion limit on how many nested mails can be included in a single pack, typically this is set to
~20 recusions.
