Anyway, I took a harder look at the manual and tried

haven't gotten the error from my cron job in a few
days, so maybe the server has purged its queue.
As an academic point, here's my .fetchmailrc . I
suppose I would want to add "limit 0" if I saw the
error again?
poll mail.<server>.com
proto pop3
user "<server user>"
pass "<server password>"
is <local user>
nokeep
fetchall
sslproto ''
Nothing there to indicate you've defined a limit.
Next time, try "fetchmail -v -v" to identify the problem. It could
also be that you're trying to download a message larger than the one
your local mail server supports. Try increasing the limit there too.
