Sorry, Rob!
Anyway, I took a harder look at the manual and tried
running "fetchmail -v -limit 0". The command didn't
download any oversized message -- but then again, I
haven't gotten the error from my cron job in a few
days, so maybe the server has purged its queue.

As an academic point, here's my .fetchmailrc . I
suppose I would want to add "limit 0" if I saw the
error again?

poll mail.<server>.com
        proto pop3
        user "<server user>"
        pass "<server password>"
        is <local user>
        nokeep
        fetchall
        sslproto ''
