Ah-ha!  I must've been sleepy, because I didn't realize fetchPOP !=
fetchmail.  I just switched to fetchmail and I'm already seeing messages
come down that were previously getting stuck in my POP3 box by fetchPOP
(these are the virus-tained faker Microsoft patches ~150kb each).   I
suspect this will fix my leaked POP3 connections too.

Thanks!

Regards,
Brian.

Looking at the code, these messages are logged when a MessagingException is
thrown. Unfortunately, the MessagingException itself is not logged. Changing
the logging level to debug will log the reply when an attempt was made to
fetch the message. This may shed more light on things.

Chances are there is something unusual, but not necessarily incorrect, about
the message being fetched that is tripping up fetchPOP. This is all too easy
to do, which is one of the reasons why in this build fetchPOP is deprecated
and replaced by fetchmail.
