If c-client returns a null BODY structure on an open IMAP stream then it
is null.
Let me reiterate what I said earlier:
There is no "retry" in IMAP. IMAP is a stateful stream oriented
protocol. The notion of "retry" is only meaningful in stateless
datagram oriented protocols such as NFS.
I'm sorry if this appears unhelpful, but in fact I am giving you the one
and only answer to your question.
It is IMPOSSIBLE in a live IMAP session for a static data FETCH to return
different results for the same data. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING DIFFERENT will
happen if you repeat the same operation.
To be honest, I don't believe your statement about a "null BODY
structure". I think that you are observing something, but that you have
misidentified it.
If you can explain a bit more about what it is you are observing, I may be
able to identify (and hopefully correct) the underlying source of your
confusion.

I know for a fact the IMAP connection never broke. I have the network trace
that shows the connection is fine (you can look at it if you want to).
c-client is returning a NULL BODY structure and I can never go download the
message's bodies. And thus, I want to force c-client to go get the body
structure again.
