The error I get is:

$ fetchmail
fetchmail: client/server protocol error while fetching from 140.126.111.5
fetchmail: Query status=4 (PROTOCOL)

When I comment out the # auth ssh section in my fetchmailrc, it
starts working again.

But the --auth ssh option on the command line fails with the following:

fetchmail: mailbox selection failed
fetchmail: client/server synchronization error while fetching from mail.chinmin.edu.tw
fetchmail: client/server protocol error while fetching from mail.chinmin.edu.tw
fetchmail: Query status=4 (PROTOCOL)

I can ssh into the shell account on the server.
