Ok, that is useful information, but still a long way off from what I would
need to track down the problems.

I believe that VM recovers from the "BAD Command" errors fine.  VM knows
that they don't matter.  But John Stoffel's trace log showed that the server
was disconnecting him after a few such errors.  This could leave VM in a
confused or inconsistent state.  I can't tell from your description what
exactly happened.

Note that I can't reproduce your errors.  You will need to give me a
blow-by-blow description of what happens and be as precise as possible.  For
instance, "this surfaces as" is too vague.  Is it an error?  Is it a
warning?  Does VM stop and report the error, or go on continuing?

What do you do next?  What is VM's response?  What does the *Messages*
buffer show?  Et cetra.

Please report it to address@hidden so that we don't have to bore
everybody with these problems.

Yes, there is.  Please see the manual section "Message Attributes".
