Five runs of "mitmailscan \*" in rapid succession,
producing differing output. All suggest the same last message:
126 17:55:21 mitmailscan \*
127 17:55:22 mitmailscan \*
128 17:55:23 mitmailscan \*
129 17:55:24 mitmailscan \*
130 17:55:25 mitmailscan \*

The 3rd and 5th invokations are the particularly special ones. I had
at first suspected a race condition relating to incoming mail
delivery, but since the last message hasn't changed, that seems
unlikely.
And I have no explanation for why it would randomly show me a message
from 9/11/2001.
