Some more info...  It *IS* reproducible about where it hangs.  It hangs at
command #161:

[snipped]
160 OK Completed

161 UID FETCH 350976 BODY.PEEK[]
[hangs here]

Also, from my prompt:

--> from -v | head
from: Premature end-of-file on IMAP connection to PO11.MIT.EDU

Are these related?  Should I bring postmaster into this conversation?
