I have a problem with fetchmail repeatedly trying to deliver a

each time the fetchmail daemon runs, and the message stays stuck in
my POP mailbox.

To completely clear your POP3 mailbox, you might want to try something 
like this:

  poll pop.ntlworld.com proto pop3
    user 'michael.g.abbott' is 'guest'
    password ???
    options
      fetchall
      no keep
      limit 1
      flush

Every message exceeding the size limit (1 byte) should be deleted without 
being retrieved.
