There MUST be more in that SMTP session (SMTP-130) but I suspect that 
it's not very useful. Are you sure you have logging for the SMTP 
module cranked up?

-39 is a MacOS I/O error. It means "end of file" and while that's not 
intrinsically an error, it means that in this case SIMS was expecting 
something more, and it looks like it was expecting more out of a SIMS 
temp file (!)

Here's an odd suggestion: check for disk corruption. If you are 
missing logf entries that you should have and SIMS is complaining 
about an EOF and citing a disk filename like that, there's a chance 
that something has munged up your disk.
