Change the limit for the number of MIME headers

By default, the limit is 20000 for the number of MIME headers when an e-mail message is converted from MIME to MAPI. The number can be set to any positive integer. This helps prevent scenarios in which Outlook hangs while attempting conversion.

Supported on: At least Windows 7
