As I wrote in my prevous post, this are 68 invocations to lseek() and the mail
file contains 68 header lines. I guess those lseek() calls are somewhere deep
inside fgets() which mutt uses to read the header line-by-line.

In the good case, mutt rewinds and reads the whole file again. In the bad case
mutt gives up.
