imapd seems to serve up emails with empty attachments.

[John Conant]

Hello Jeroen,
     When I get "empty attachment" from TB it usually seems to be some 
sort of time delay - the attachment hasn't downloaded to the client fast 
enough.
But that would only make sense if the response time from one of your two 
folders was slow, which seems unlikely....
