Probably.  Depends on whether you subscribe to the philosophy that 
fetchmail should work around server bugs it encounters.

One problem here is that we have contradictory workarounds -- fetchmail 
could handle this by using the server's reported message size rather than 
using the dot (and that may be what the authors of the o2.pl server 
expect the client to do), but fetchmail doesn't use the reported message 
size because some servers report the wrong message size (usually due to 
EOL issues).
