Good thing we don't do POTS anymore. The biggest bundle I got was 39MB
compressed (203MB raw), and that wasn't the only one. Luckily a bug in one of
my scripts resulted in it being ignored until another script warned me of the
old file sitting in the inbound, so my message base avoided most of the damage.

PKTs that were processed...

I'm guessing a corrupt JAM base or a very naughty tosser (mail or otherwise)
that's messing with metadata that's never supposed to be modified.
