I am continuing to have a problem with qpopper getting mail from an mbox

This is an excerpt from the /var/log/messages file:

client gerard at 192.168.0.3 [192.168.0.3]: Operation not permitted (1)
This message most commonly indicates the client gave up and went
away. Perhaps your customer is giving up because you're trying to
push 30MB of data to them?
The recourse I have is to manually delete the contents of the mailbox. I
have the latest version of qpopper installed. I am unsure as to where I
could post this problem to other than here. I would like to post a bug
report, but I am not sure as to where to place it.
This issue has been discussed at length. Generally the issue is not
qpopper's fault. You haven't mentioned what version of qpopper you're
running, though, it's also possible you're running an older version.
