I have stripped most of the good stuff out of the email. I can
provide the original when the owner says sure, otherwise (and until
then) this is it. I also didn't alter the content length or the
number of lines, but I figured you would have to be nuts to use either
so no harm.
I checked and it still hangs Pine and/or imapd.
One detail I forgot. In all cases Pine and TkRat can read the mailbox
directly (both support the Unix mailbox format so I copied the INBOX
to see if it was just the client's problem) without any problems. As
can mutt (v1.3.25 if it matters), but mutt never had/caused any
issues.
