That would be handy. FWIW, you can test $mime_content_type to count
message/rfc822 parts in an ACL variable. I can't see a way to
differentiate nested from successive parts (other than possibly at
the top level via $mime_is_rfc822), but rejecting after exceeding
some reasonable limit on the total count of message/rfc822 parts
would probably be effective.
