I finally read your message. Did you figure out the cause of this? I
tried the script but it seems to work correctly with me.

Also the captures look like the message was all sent correctly.. They
were from the sender's side and not the receiver's, I guess?

If you're still interested in debugging this, getting the captures from
receiver's side could show something. Also if you used maildir format
instead of mbox does that change anything?
