The interesting thing about that rawlog was that it shows the APPEND  
returning it saved the message with UID x, but in the mbox file  
there's no UID x, but there is the empty message with UID x+1.

I'm using mboxes all the time, never seen this..

Perhaps if you put all processes through strace (-s 1000000) and when  
it again happens for some user send me the strace? Although I'd guess  
it shows that the message was properly written to the mbox file. The  
real question is then what truncates the mbox file..
