Comment:

 Tested against version 1.5.19

 How to reproduce:

 1) start mutt, connect to an imaps mailbox
 2) from the list select a message but DO NOT press enter
 3) on a root console insert the following rule
 iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 993
 4) now press enter, mutt will say "fetching message..."
 5) at this point .mutt/cache/[...]/bodies/ will contain a file called .tmp
 with 0 size
 6) kill -15 mutt
 7) remove the iptables rule (iptables -F)
 8) restart mutt, select the message and press enter, it will be shown
 correctly
 9) at this point the empty file called .tmp will be called <filename>
 without the .tmp extension, it will still be 0
 10) hit 'q', then you're back to the main view, select again the message
 and press enter
 11) this time the message will be shown as empty
