I've seen this behavior with older versions of wu's IMAPD server - it
tends
to go catatonic with large messages (>800KB) and the user then fires up
another session while the previous session hasn't released its lock on
the
files/messages. Those messages then show up later (when the earlier
session
dies).
At least that was my conclusion based on empirical evidence - I never
bothered to crack open the source on that one. (Messages that large were
either
spam or MS Word documents).
