My fetchmail ends with 552 error code.
"Headers too large".

Could you please give me some idea how can i configure
fetchmail so that it accepts headers of any size.

You're aware that over-sized headers are one way of sending virus/trojan 
code to certain mail applications?  Downloading over-sized headers isn't 
necessarily a good thing.

More than that.  The 552 indicates that your MTA, not fetchmail, is 
rejecting the message.  No reconfiguration of fetchmail can fix that.
