Mitch is using Mutt. There is nothing unusual about his e-mail that I can
find.
Why do you insist on using known buggy e-mail clients? If you insist on
using Windows, try Thunderbird (http://www.mozilla.org/) or Eudora
(http://www.eudora.com/).
Better yet, try using something under Linux. There are more e-mail
clients to choose from.
I am betting that there is some odd imap issue that you are running into.
You need to test with something made by someone other than the client that
is not working.
