Here's my example again, gzipped to double protect the contents from
alteration in transmit.

  http://dsb3.com/mbox-crash-1.gz

Server:
  Intel FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE

    $ openssl version
    OpenSSL 0.9.7c 30 Sep 2003

  Server has an old 0.9.6e installed in /usr, but tpop3d was
  compiled against the 0.9.7c (in /usr/local)

  $ ldd /opt/tpop3d/sbin/tpop3d
  /opt/tpop3d/sbin/tpop3d:
        libwrap.so.3 => /usr/lib/libwrap.so.3 (0x2807b000)
        libssl.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libssl.so.3 (0x28083000)
        libcrypto.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.3 (0x280b1000)
        libcrypt.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2 (0x2819d000)
        libperl.so.3 => /usr/lib/libperl.so.3 (0x281b6000)
        libm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2 (0x2824e000)
        libc.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc.so.4 (0x2826a000)
        libutil.so.3 => /usr/lib/libutil.so.3 (0x28303000)


Non-Problematic Client:
  The problem does *NOT* occur when connecting via loopback on the
  same machine.
 

Problematic Clients:
  Intel Debian Linux (2.4.21)
    $ openssl version
    OpenSSL 0.9.7c 30 Sep 2003
  
  Also tested on Intel Redhat9 (2.4.20)
    $ openssl version
    OpenSSL 0.9.7a Feb 19 2003
