Yes, this is a known bug and is being fixed in the next version (I write and
maintain Mercury/32). The Mercury/32 IMAP server is still a relatively
recent product and some of the wrinkles are still getting ironed out of it. In
this particular case, I didn't read the specification carefully enough - I
assumed that an envelope had to be returned for any item of type
message/*, where the specification is very specific about message/rfc822.
Definitely my error.

I have no idea at all what happened there... :-( It may be related to the
problem referred to in [1].

Almost certainly from the same place as the bizarre negative line and size
counts. My best guess is that the body part wasn't available when I was
doing the calculations - I definitely need to add some bulletproofing for
that.
