I've just applied a patch that should considerably narrow the hole in
which this can happen.  An *UN*official patch you can make to mail.c,
line 1733:

  1732      /* now check whether we should abort the letter */
  1733      if (sig > 0 && !killme) {

becomes:

  1733      if (sig > 0 && !killme && ison(glob_flags, IS_GETTING)) {

This will be official whenever all the other changes are ...

} I have also seen a longjmp botch if I ^Z (suspend) mush when it isn't
} at a prompt (like while it's updating a folder) and then resume it.

I have no idea how this could happen, as none of the stop/start code
does any longjmping whatsoever.  If you see it again, please try to
tell us more specifically what the circumstances are.
