The "Splunk for IMAP" app is quite old, with the last update in August 2009 (by Erik Swan no less).

The maxQueryIds configuration option was deprecated in 3.3.3 & retired in version 3.4.4 (See HERE).

I'm pretty sure Splunk just ignores this line, but if you no longer wish to see it just remove it from the "Splunk for IMAP" indexes.conf file.
