My incoming mail goes to various mail servers on the internet, and I run
fetchmail to get them from various POP servers.
Today, for the first time in memory, when fetchmail tried getting my mail,
a particular piece of mail kept freezing during the download and fetchmail
would finally stop, giving an error message of some sort or another.
I had to go onto the server with telnet and delete that piece of mail,
then, all went well.
So, the question: What kind of mail would freeze the download and kill
fetchmail?
some f00l who sent you a 948MB attachment?
