The check's logic is fine as it is, it's the way that the >pop3_getpartialsizes() function is called that is broken. When I ran into this problem, I found a patch that is supposed to do the right thing (ie not try to fetch multiple sizes when that isn't possible). I'm pretty sure I found it in the fetchmail list archives. I expect it will be officially incorporated one day. But I didn't bother to try the patch since adding "fetchsizelimit 1" to .fetchmailrc is a successful workaround. Stephen.
