Note that once updating to nupas, you should then (manually)
convert your mailbox to the new format. I've had mailboxes of
several thousand messages (although I'm not sure I've hit 16k)
which kill (o)upas reliably but nupas handles perfectly well.
The conversion is a one-time process and is pretty safe, but
obviously you should make sure you have a copy of the
mailbox somewhere safe first (like the dump).
