> At the moment the whole raw imap request is held in memory before it is dispatched to the processor (when the data is ready). This can lead to heavy memory usage and in theory allow a DOS attach by specify a very big literal and then just write garbage to the server. To prevent this we should stream the data to disk if a configurable threshold is hit.
