Sympatico and Sourceforge Lists

If anyone else on here is using Sympatico and receives list mail from
any of the Sourceforge projects, I'm looking to confirm or deny that
Sympatico's recent implementation of spam-blocking software is messing
with my fetchmail.

All mail from lists.sourceforge.net is left on the POP server, fetchmail
will not retrieve it, even with fetchmail -a I get this error:

 .fetchmail: incorrect header line found while scanning headers
.fetchmail: incorrect header line found while scanning headers
fetchmail: incorrect header line found while scanning headers
fetchmail: incorrect header line found while scanning headers
...fetchmail:  retained

and I believe it is because of this, added to the header by
spamassassin:

X-Spam-Score: -4.5 (----)
X-Spam-Report: -4.5/5.0
	The original message has been attached along with this report, so
	you can recognize or block similar mail in future.
	See: //spamassassin.org/tag/ for more details.

but it is *only* added to mail from lists.sourceforge.net, *and* I have
gone to the Sympatico site (which you can only access with Internet
Exploder, I might add) and disabled the filtering. This tag is added to
none of the other mail I receive through Sympatico, so far as I can
tell.

Any ideas? This is driving me nuts!
