Artificial argv limits.
when i skimmed the code earlier, i was looking at all the uses of
MAXARGS -- many of which are used to size local arrays. converting
them all to be dynamically-sized might be a fair amount of work.
but looking at rmm.c, refile.c, and folder_delmsgs(), i don't think
that issue applies. the patch below fixes the problem, and makes
rmmproc and refile do the right thing (well, at least, the modern
thing). NB: i didn't test to the limit where execvp should return
E2BIG.
as for the rest of mh -- it's certainly possible to hit the MAXARGS
limit with other commands (show, for instance), but i suspect the
frequency is much lower, and those, too, can be fixed as needed.
