Re: [fetchmail]"Message delimiter found while scanning headers" Error

Im having some trouble with fetchmail 5.9.7, i get a
"fetchmail: message delimiter found while scanning headers"
and after that i get a "client/server protocol error" because the
pop server keeps sending mail data after fetchmail thinks it should have
finished, or i get "message was not the expected length (xxx actual !=3D
yyyy expected)" when it tries to send the message to my local smpt
server (exim). In the last case however i get the mail, but it has
an empty body and no subject.

<---SNIP--->
This is my current config:
This is fetchmail release 5.9.7
Linux abyss 2.4.18-pre3 #2 mi=E9 feb 13 00:46:50 UYT 2002 i686 unknown

That's an awful lot of pre release software :-)

Seriously, try the full release 5.9.8 and see if that solves the problem. If not then some results from "fetchmail -v -v" and sample headers wouldn't go amiss.



   Please don't CC me on anything sent to mailing lists or send
       me email directly unless it's a privacy issue, thanks.
