I'll try and dig something up for you, Bill. I can confirm that we've seen it many, many times in the past -- but to be honest I haven't heard of any occurrences in recent months. Usually when someone calls up telling us they're receiving many copies of their e-mail, I know it's the bug at work. At least for our part, Outlook Express downloads e-mail normally until it reaches the malformed SPAM message and then quits. The next time the automatic send-and-receive fires, it re-downloads the messages and quits at the offending message again (leaving all the messages on the server and not downloading anything beyond the SPAM message). This repeats all day until the user calls us. It's always been solved through webmail or manual deletion on our part. It's always SPAM, with the exception of a single case.
