Jeff, I think you are right - the PGP peice is a coincidence.  However,
I use maildir for my inbox and I also get messages quite often that
can't be deleted.  They all contain attachments and they are from the
same people fairly consistently.  I'll zip the next one up and send it
to whoever wants it.

If it helps in any way, the common piece that I found is how the
filenames appear in the 'cur' directory - they are all missing the last
letter.

e.g. 
993134976.3312_126.ajax:2,S - is the last email that I received
993134976.3312_126.ajax:2,  - is how it would appear if it was one of
the mails that I could not delete.
