Kind of.. there's a limit for how many times the mail scanner is invoked,
(such as for a message with zip containing message containing zip
containing message...), but not for mime recursion.. i.e. parseEmailBody
recurses through embedded MIME parts with no recursion checking.

Both limits would be useful with optional block on limit exceeded.
