Yes, I can try to workaround the problem as Stardiviner suggests. But to make
mutt more error-tolerant I think mutt still has something to
be improved. 
For header fetching mutt could do a better job. The first is to manage a
well-format header cache file when connection not available temporarily
or disconnected on the server end. The second is to re-fetching the
remaining headers but not all headers each time.(The second one is rely
on the first.)
