After implementing Chris's suggestion, open Spotlight preferences, click 
the Privacy tab and add either the Temp Incoming folder, its enclosing 
folder or (as I have done) the entire Emailer folder.

For whatever reason, it seems Spotlight indexing interferes with 
processing incoming mail.  The preference change fixes the problem 
permanently.  It has worked for me on both 10.4.3 and 10.4.11, so 10.4.9 
is 'bracketed'.

Emailer messages can't be indexed by Spotlight anyway, so little (or 
nothing) is lost.
