My problem has not been solved yet. I enclose one of the messages header
that causes the trouble. The only thing that differs is the subject line
with blank spaces in it. Could that be the reason why fetchmail quits?
I haven't followed this thread, so my apologies if someone has mentioned
this. Fetchmail 6.2.4 handles this problem. In 6.2.2, mail with
incorrect headers would cause fetchmail to simply leave the mail on the
ISP's server. In 6.2.3, fetchmail would attempt to dispose of the mail
and dump out with the protocol error. In 6.2.4, both problems were
solved. If you're running a prior version and simply can't upgrade, you
can check the list archives; there were patches to both 6.2.2 and 6.2.3
to resolve this problem.
