As far as I understand it you want to poll all the 162 messages from your
server - but why are you setting the single-poll-limit to 2 messages? Try
160 if you want to use the fetchlimit option.

Man fetchmail:

       fetchlimit         -B    Max  # messages to fetch in single
                                connect
