I have found a literal HeisenBug in vpopmaild - when using recordio to watch the conversation for debugging purposes, wait_read() times out without actually seeing what is passed to it. Removing recordio solves the problem - the act of watching vpopmaild actually changes its behavior.
I don't know enough about recordio and how vpopmaild is doing its interactive reads, but it must have something to do with the file descriptors. Perhaps someone with more of a clue than I can look into it at some point...
