Oh, I did notice what is probably unintentional behaviour -- passing
?limit=XXX affects all mailbox access, not just the initial retrieval.

E.g. if I configured pop3 with ?limit=128, then leave for the weekend and
return on Monday, I will only be able to retrieve 128 new messages, regardless
of how many arrived over the weekend.

I'm not sure if this is what was intended -- I think it makes more sense to
have ?limit=XXX only affect the initial retrieval. In all other cases, when a
tracking uuid cookie is present, it should return all messages regardless of
?limit=.

Does that make sense?
