Ah, the message plus attachments was too big for the list. But as
list owner I have a copy of the files. I'll take a look myself and

It's odd, yes, but it's not something that valgrind is good at
catching: valgrind does a great job with memory allocated on the
"heap" (malloc) but doesn't help much with stack corruption.
