some messages block access to IMAP box

[Jeroen Dijkmans]

Hi,


I'm suffering from the following problem with Gnus v5.10.6 under xemacs
21.4 (patch 13) on Windows:

There are some messages which I don't see in my IMAP inbox via Gnus.
Gnus doesn't block on that, I just don't see them.

If I examine my IMAP mailbox, using Mozilla, I see and can read these
messages without a problem.

Strange side effect however, if I've read these messages via Mozilla,
and leave them in the same IMAP box (their status changes from unread to
read), this will block Gnus accessing this specific mailbox:
if I select the IMAP box, using RET in the *Group* buffer, Gnus seems to
freeze, while in the minibuffer the following statusline appears (for
this example, I moved the problem-giving message to Trash (--> using
Mozilla)):

Fetching headers for nnimap+mijn_mail:Trash...

If I press C-g at that time, the *Warnings* buffer displays:

(18) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (error In imap-parse-body)

The contents of my *Imap-log* at the moment I start up Gnus, and try to
open Trash, containing only the problem-giving message is as follows:

The problem message itself, is am message written with Mozilla 4.79 [en]
(Windows NT 5.0; U) and contains a forwarded message.  This included
message is written with Microsoft Office Outlook, Build 11.0.5510, and
is BTW written in HTML :-( :

<meta name=3DGenerator content=3D"Microsoft Word 11 (filtered)">

If it would help, I can also post the message itself.

I hope I made myself clear about the problem and that I've given enough
information to enable (one of) you to help me with this problem.


TIA,


Jeroen
