Just wanted to mention that 1.1.6 seems fine so far in our testing,

probably a very good sign!We're running 1.1.4 in production on one machine, and have tried
1.1.5. and 1.1.6 in our test environment... all three still
sometimes have the "next message unexpectedly lost" error logged.
This happens only for Outlook users, and corresponds to the user
seeing a message with no subject or body in Outlook's list.
I've finally managed to reproduce this with my own mails a few days
ago. Now I'd just need to figure out what exactly is causing it and
fix it.
Other clients see the message fine. Effective workarounds:
- Delete index files.
- Have the user use a client such as Pine to "bounce" the message,
or reply to it, or etc. After this Outlook can display it. We've
sort of inferred that this is due to the fact that it's technically
a "new" message now, as it is rewritten to add the appropriate
header fields.
- Don't use mbox. :)
Although I thought this error was transparent to users. I get it every
few days and haven't really noticed any problems because of it. Wonder
what Outlook sees that causes it to break.
