Aki, the IMAP client can receive the e-mails with an empty body without any damage. This is how IMAP works normally. The full body is queried again by the client when reading the e-mail for real.

When dovecot receives many full body downloads from a client, it could respond by sending the header only.
This sounds rather dangerous. Client is expecting full body download, not headers. Aki
