claude 4f96bbd6ec email: bound the MIME walk and drop two copies of every body (V-581)
The MIME tree walk had no depth limit, and the nesting comes off the wire.
A boundary line is a few bytes, so one message inside MaxMessageBytes can
declare tens of thousands of multipart levels and pick the recursion depth
of a daemon reading his mail. MaxMIMEDepth stops the walk at 12, well past
the three levels real mail uses, and the headers still come through.

ParseMessage converted the raw message to a string to read it, which copied
up to 2 MiB per mail on a box already holding the resident model. It reads
the bytes directly now. decodeCP1251 collected runes and then copied them
into a string, four bytes a character for the whole body, and writes into a
Builder instead.

No behaviour change to what is read: EXAMINE and BODY.PEEK are still the
only mailbox commands, and no credential reaches a log line.

// Package email is the reading half of the email reader (Vikunja #246,
// docs/plans/01-email-reader.md): a small IMAP client, a MIME-to-plaintext
// converter, and the junk filter that decides a message is not worth reading at
// all. Extraction lives in extract.go and writes nothing itself.
//
// Two constraints shape everything here, both from CLAUDE.md:
//
// - Mail is personal. Nothing in this package logs a body, a subject, or an
// address; callers get the text and decide. Mail text is never search input
// — no function here reaches the network except the IMAP connection itself.
// - Off unless configured. There is no default host, no default account, and
// no fallback that would make a mailbox get read because a field was empty.
//
// The IMAP subset is deliberately tiny (LOGIN, SELECT, UID SEARCH, UID FETCH
// with BODY.PEEK, LOGOUT). No IDLE: a poll every few minutes is what a task
// candidate needs, and IDLE would mean holding a connection and a credential
// open forever for latency nobody is waiting on.
