It would be my first instinct to blame the remote server, but I don't
want to jump to conclusions too quickly. You could run tcpdump (or
wireshark if you want a GUI) to get more of an idea of what's causing
it. I have used getmail with Gmail in the past through a cronjob and
it's worked quite well. I assume you're using the latest version of
getmail?
I thought I could make an account on free.fr so I could test it from my
end, but it doesn't seem to offer this (I initially thought it was a
free webmail site).
