At this point this is what I know. There was manual intervention on behalf of a user that ended up with an extra space in the box. This caused dovecot to blow up with no real intelligent error. It should have given some error like mail header corrupt or some such. Second, it seems to be doing some corrupting of its own, or postfix, not sure which but occasionally NUL characters are also making their way into the INBOX and causing troubles.
