fetchmail error

[addiction <countess@polbox.com>]

i was wondering if anyone had any idea what this error means. i never had
any problem with mail retreival until recently (nothing has been changed on
this end).

Unable to process From lines (envelopes), change recognition modes. <-- what
exactly does that mean?

here's the error message/s:

fetchmail: 5.3.4 querying polbox.com (protocol POP3) at Mon, 01 May 2000
