Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.2.5-12
Severity: important
Looking at the following session, one can wonder what this "72
messages" refers to. It may just be a wrong calculation that could
explain why there is a timeout afterwards. At least, I hope so...
$ fetchmail
270 messages (1 seen) for ydirson at altern.
skipping message [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1 not flushed
skipping message [EMAIL PROTECTED]:2 (36981 octets) (oversized) not flushed
reading message [EMAIL PROTECTED]:3 of 270 (1739 header octets) . (2747 body
octets) ... flushed

fetchmail: timeout after 300 seconds waiting for server altern.

The configuration for this account is:
defaults
username ydirson
limit 30000
expunge 50
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -f -"
poll altern
via pop.altern.org
protocol IMAP
password XXXXXXX
Indeed, I suspect the "expunge" setting is not correctly used, since
the "XX messages (XX seen)" line does not occur at all between the
initial one and the one just before the problem.
The timeout on 2nd run happens really frequently, but I had not
noticed this strange number of messages till today.
