I'm not aware of any limitations in this matter.  E.g., I'm typing
this from an Rmail INBOX folder that currently holds 2832 messages.

What do you mean by "shows exactly 255 messages" -- shows where?  What
does the mode line show in the major mode portion?  What happens if
you say "C-u 1000 j" -- does it show the 1000th message?  What happens
if you press 'h' -- does Rmail produce a summary of only 255 messages?
Did you see any messages when you typed the original "M-x rmail"
command (you can see them in the *Messages* buffer)?
