Hi Jérôme; It's hard to be certain about whether the broken message is a ghost message or not, as there was nothing to see in the headers (it got as far as "RFC822 Header Follows" and then nothing. I have a lot of incoming mail from the same people all the time so it is difficult to determine whether the content of the broken message is actually replicated in a message that I have fully received.
You may be right and the messages have actually been retrieved but leave a phantom presence on the server (or whatever it is that is happening). The broken messages have been deleted now so I have nothing to check against, but if it happens again I'll see what I can determine. Thanks for your help.
