I just tried a message with a 3 lines almost 4k in size each in the body and
didn't notice any problems with 4.0 when popping the message, or the
message after it.  We too are having problems where customers
are having problems retrieving certain messages, but I think
the garbage may be an external factor not related to qpopper.
Did you check the spool file to see if the garbage is there too?
