I saw something almost identical last Friday. Using netscape MUA
and qmail pop server. We we went to pick up the
emails via pop we saw the same message you saw. It turned out to be
one particular email message. Maybe around 4K. Unfortunately it was
deleted before we saved a copy on the disk. Once we removed the
'bad' email, everything started working fine.
