    Hi,

    I've been running fetchmail + maildrop without any problems for over a
    year, but last friday I upgrade fetchmail to the lastest version in
    sarge (that is fetchmail got upgraded from 5.9 (the one in woody, that
    never get updated so far...) to the 6.2 present in the stable version
    of debian). Since then I got :

    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: reading message
    me@pop3.btclick.com:1 of 20 (1282 octets)
    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: MDA returned nonzero status 75
    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: not flushed
    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: reading message
    me@pop3.btclick.com:2 of 20 (11654 octets)
    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: SIGPIPE thrown from an MDA or
    a stream socket error
    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: socket error while delivering
    to SMTP host pop3.btclick.com
    Oct 31 09:43:22 mgate fetchmail[15082]: Query status=2 (SOCKET)

    So apparently maildrop returns a temporary failure (?). I've check
    that the disk wasn't full, but now I'm a bit stuck. Any help
    appreciated !
