Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: fetchmail
fetchmail stoped to dowload email. There has been no error in log file about
fetchmail. I found out, that problem was to long "CC" field in one of the
emails on provider server.
This is my configuration:

In reality, there was more than 60 email addresses in CC field of this email.
In log file, "CC" field was cut in the middle of the address.
After this last log, there was nothing else happenig.
When i discovered this long CC field in log file. I deleted this email from
email provider server (throught web interface). And after this, fetchmail was
again happyly downloading emails.
