A block of downloaded emails, from a couple of days ago going back three weeks, have corrupted text, displaced text, or just erased.

The corrupted text looks like it's webpage code or source code. Sometimes the text from one message will show up, uncorrupted, as the text of another message. And sometimes the content is just wholly erased.
