I have been in touch with a few individuals on the Fetchmail forum. It
appears, at least according to the change log, that IPv6 has been
improved on the latest version of Fetchmail. I am not sure if this is a
good thing or not. In any case, I disabled IPv6 on this PC and the
problem went away. I think this problem needs more investigations though.
