Hi Václav,

where does this "30 second" timeout come from? I see the default client  
timeout is set to 300 in tunable.h, and that is plenty.

Also, what can fetchmail do about slow or prematurely disconnecting MTAs?  
Retry later. If Exim is too slow accepting messages, use Postfix.

Anyways, please show your configuration so I can see what's going on there.

HTH
