Hell's bells. Turns out that fetchmail 5.9.11 fixes my problem.

Subject: RE: [fetchmail]Fetchmail chokes on spam I can't seem to avoid:
"message delimiter found while scanning headers"
Ideally, there'd be an option to delete the message on the nth
try, replacing the body text with the error (since otherwise, I get
a copy of the message, with no body, delivered to my local MTA,
over and over and over)
I'd rather delete malformed mail than get endless copies
of it.
