Public bug reported:

I missed some mails and found, that getmail cant fetch my external mail-
accounts.

my manual running I got this:

Retrieval error: server for
SimplePOP3SSLRetriever:[email protected]@pop.gmx.net:995 is broken; offered
message 0Llq72-1YgEPZ0gim-00ZO3n but failed to provide it.  Please
notify the administrator of the server.  Skipping message...

After searching I found Debian Bug Report #782614, where others have to
same problem.

After change /usr/lib/python2.7/poplib.py with _MAXLINE = 999999 it
works, but this is not the final solution.

They suggest a patch for getmail, which should get applied.
