[fetchmail] earthlink pop3 protocol error

2003-08-08 23:50:48
OS is Linux 2.4.21
compiler gc 2.95.3
local mda is postfix 2.0.13

From the look of the run what I can tell is that Postfix is rejecting the 
sender, fetchmail see's this and sends the DELE to the pop3 server but the 
pop3 server is still sending the message to fetchmail causing to fetchmail to 
stop retrievals of other messages and giving some protocol error.
Anyway around this?
