ok, there was no problem fetching the first message (566 header
octets) but as soon as i want to fetch mails with bigger attachments
(692104 body octets) i get synchronization errors. I guess i have to
add that no size restrictions are set neither on imap-server nor
local. The "limit"-line in my .fetchmailrc is the only restriction
(if someone wanted to email me redhat.iso) set.
I was not sure if this not due to some errors in ssh but commenting out the
"preconnect"-line and port# in the poll-line just didn't help.
No, I think it's much simpler than that. The message is so big that
fetchmail didn't see a server response for 300 seconds and decided the server
had hung. Raise your timeout.
