Quite off-topic, but quite scary too:

Some users of our network (a Debian mail server with postfix, procmail,
uw-imap, uw-ipop3d and Oulook Express clients) report instances of
merged e-mail messages: two separate messages become one with merged
headers and loss of one of the messages' body.

Myself (using fetchmail and procmail) I have occasionnaly received
merged messages in which the bodies were joined by a thick slab of null
characters.

Has anybody dealt with theses phenomena yet?
