Your problem is a mailbox which contains several thousand messages. 
Possibly several thousand messages which Outlook hasn't seen previously.

Outlook tries to construct a single IMAP command of the form:

  UID FETCH uid,uid,uid,... <some set of fields>

where the list of UIDs is larger than 8 KBytes in size.

Split the problem mailbox into smaller mailboxes using something other 
than Outlook. Alternatively you could increase the word limit in Cyrus. 
MAXWORD is 32k in recent Cyrus 2.3 versions.
