Ok...so it's possible the data in the body field was inserted by the  
device at some point, and not sent my exchange as a CRLF when empty.

Anyway, I made a number of changes to various pieces of logic. Not  
very optimistic that it is *the* issue, but it's possible that it  
might help. When you get a chance, you can pull the latest from git  
(or wait until tomorrow's snaps - just be sure to match all the snaps  
to the same day) and give it another go... Just be aware that the  
change you made regarding sessions/cookies is NOT in the upstream code  
at this time, so you must make sure that change gets reapplied.
