If you can arrange a network capture of a non-SSL remote CLAWS
connection, try checking whether there's a hidden character (NULL,
.etc.) being sent.

It's also telling that it works for some accounts, and not for others.
Try rebuilding the user's index cache by removing it (save a copy!) and
see if that makes it work.  If it does, you can send the buggy caches
to the developer and see if they can figure it out.
