A bit of poking around reveals that something in the filtering process is 
stripping the messages clean. I tried 'apply all filters' on a few test 
messages and after processing they were empty but for the above header, and 
moved into my inbox. SpamAssassin and/or Bogofilter are -eating- my incoming 
mails simply by checking them.
