I'm seeing crashes during retrieval, and it always seems to match spam
that has a gibberish subject line and a .tw (Taiwan) source domain.
Presumably it's the same bug. After such a crash, I use remote control
to mark all messages with gibberish subject lines for deletion on the
server and then I can complete the regular download successfully.
