Hello!

I was happily fetching my mail with fetchmail today when I got that:
beaupran@outpost [4:35pm] ~> fetchmail -v
fetchmail: 4.3.8 querying 10.0.2.1 (protocol POP3) at Sun Jul 19 16:36:46
1998
fetchmail: POP3< +OK slirp.popper (version 2.2-b5/1) at
derby.jsp.umontreal.ca starting.  
fetchmail: POP3> USER beaupran
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Password required for beaupran.
fetchmail: POP3> PASS *
fetchmail: POP3< +OK beaupran has 1 message (641 octets).
fetchmail: selecting or re-polling default folder
fetchmail: POP3> STAT
fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 641
fetchmail: 1 message for beaupran at 10.0.2.1.
fetchmail: POP3> LIST
fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 messages (641 octets)
fetchmail: POP3< 1 641
fetchmail: POP3< .
fetchmail: POP3> RETR 1
fetchmail: POP3< +OK 641 octets
reading message 1 of 1 (641 bytes)
fetchmail: SMTP connect to localhost failed: Connection refused
fetchmail: POP3> QUIT
fetchmail: POP3< 
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from 10.0.2.1
fetchmail: normal termination, status 10

It's no password error. Fetchmail never failed me before (almost!).
Before, I got messages like:
fetchmail: SMTP connect to localhost failed: Connection refused
fetchmail: POP3> QUIT
fetchmail: POP3< [...?] first part of multi-MIME 

or something like that...

This is weird. I got to get my mail!!!
