Hi,
if the RFC822 emtpy line after the header lines is missing, fetchmail should
insert that emtpy line and process the mail.
Fetchmail 5.9.13 (SuSE 8.1) delivers both header and body, and deletes the
mail on the server. However, the first body line is lost as it gets
replaced by an empty line.
Fetchmail 6.2.3 (SuSE 9.0) delivers the header, but stops, leaving the mail
on the server so that it tries to fetch it over and over again.
Fetchmail 6.2.5 (compiled with gcc-Version 3.3.1 on SuSE 9.0 Linux) deletes
the mail without delivery, without any indication that it's lost:
