Those 388 probably explain why I just saw on a FreeBSD-6.4 host: ] fetchmail: SMTP error: 552 5.6.0 Headers too large (32768 max) ] fetchmail: mail from MAILER-DAEMON@........ bounced to owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org ] fetchmail: SMTP listener refused delivery My sympathies go to postmaster@ team who are probably already receiving lots of bounces & noise on this. PS Yes I realise I should upgrade that 6.4 box to 8.2 (as headers made it through the more modern SMTP of list server), but my local tech. constraints etc delay me ).
