The software has issues with larger attachments. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Find an Apply computer and send an attached 5MB file to your IMAP account. 2. Check mail, verify that attachment can be downloaded from IMAP and opened. 3. Right click on attachment in the main window and select "Delete". Actual Results: After a few minutes, a different message with identical old content appears in my IMAP Inbox. All attachments are there. Expected Results: After a few minutes, a different message without 5MB attachment should appear in my IMAP Inbox.

I suspect this is a timeout issue - using the config editor, you could try increasing the timeout, which is in seconds: mailnews.tcptimeout to something like 500 and see if that helps.
R.C.H. your issue seems dupe of bug #417646. You agree?
David, the timeout did not help. Confirming this as a dupe of bug #417646.
