*possibly* your mailbox on the server is screwed up. however, this is
unprobable.

is there enough space on you hard drive, i.e. on your /var partition?
you say, that only mails with attachements are refused (which tend to be a
bit larger).

if the other fetching programm (your pop3-mua) would not complain, too, i
would suspect, that fetchmail's fetch-limit is set too low.
