No, I'm not quite sure how your mail state got set to null... that isn't
supposed to be possible. I probably should patch the MailImpl class to
throw an exception if you set the state to null.

That's a perfectly fine mailet, and probably one of the easiest around. My
only guess is that somewhere earlier in your processor the state is getting
set to null by mistake. Not really sure what to tell you... I'll patch for
1.2.1 the check that prevents state from being set to null, and that might
help you track things down.
