You are probably correct in assuming that it is a client app. issue
although I have not had a problem since I posted the email below. <br>

Thanks for all your hard work in making Dovecot a solid MDA.<br>

clients: Outlook, OE, TB at the frequency of about every 3 ~ 6 months.
Delete the offending mail, and harmony is returned.
Next time it happens, I'll try to do an autopsy on the bad mail and
try to determine what is different about it.
