Actually, I think I may have seen this once before (cui in an infinite
loop), but I didn't realize that's what the problem was.  We, too, were
hit by the bad message to xpert.  I finally got cui to proceed by
deleting messages from my bboard account's Mailbox directory until I
found the offending one.

Not a pretty sight!
