check the mailbox of this user. There is certainly a corrupted mail in it.
It happened to me to.
It's certainly the first one.

I have a strange problem.  Qpopper suddently stopped
accepting a particular user's login.  I have reset the password
and even deleted and recreated the account information
(but not the home directory) and qpopper will not work for this
one account.  I have many other poeople with working pop accounts
and there seems to be nothing particular about this one.  Telnet and ftp work
fine for the account, and I can access the mail okay with the standard
"mail" program.

I am using Redhat 6.1 and qpopper 3.1b6

Here is what I get from fetchmail (although the problem
first occured when the person was using outlook)

fetchmail: 5.1.0 querying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (protocol POP3) at Thu, 21 Dec 2000 07:29:23 -0500 (EST)
fetchmail: POP3< +OK ready  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
fetchmail: POP3> USER john
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Password required for john.
fetchmail: POP3> PASS *
fetchmail: POP3< -ERR [SYS/PERM] Unable to process From lines (envelopes), change recognition modes or check for corrupted mail drop.
fetchmail: [SYS/PERM] Unable to process >From lines (envelopes), change recognition modes or check for corrupted mail drop.
fetchmail: Authorization failure on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
fetchmail: POP3> QUIT
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Pop server at xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx signing off.
fetchmail: authorization error while fetching from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
fetchmail: Query status=3
fetchmail: normal termination, status 3

Any suggestions?
