Have a look at the messages in the Maildir and check for s single dot in
a line taht is follwed by a linefeed.

You can search for it easily by executing the following command:
grep "^[\.]" *

Usually the dot followed by the newline is the sign for the pop-client
that the end of the message is reached. But in some cases the message
goes on and the mailer gets stuck.
Usually every MUA sending such a line in the middle of a message should
exchange it with a

And the receiving Mailer should convert it back to

again.

I know this to be a problem with certain Versions of Outlook. But I
didn't find the mailer that sends the malformed lines.
