Armed with that detail we tracked it down to a broken index file for one of the user's subfolders, in which a number of records had been overwritten with ASCII junk that looks like mailbox contents. /How/ that happened remains an open question, but a quick reconstruct has hopefully prevented the busy-loop problem recurring in this case. I might put your patch in the next round of packages we build...
