I use my gmail account to receive messages from another account. This was working well until last week. Now I receive this error: Error: Server is unavailable. Server returned error "Line length exceeded limit: Line too long" No messages are coming |

Is there one particular email not downloading from another account? If so, move that email to another folder, then download the other emails. That email may be too large or corrupt. |

Yes, just one account. I am having msgs stored on the server and was reading that maybe I should turn this off. Also, I noted that someone sent me a message with a very large attachment last week (32mb). Wondering if this might have 'flipped a switc |

I am running into the same cryptic error. How am I supposed to know what email it is that is causing a problem? I just set it up to forward from an account with lots and lots of emails in it, and it hasn't finished grabbing all the emails in the ac |

This probably won't help, but I recall seeing a post about something similar when dealing with filters that are to long. Probably doesn't apply here, but perhaps if you have any long filters you might experiment with shortening them and see if it he |

I've had this issue for months and think I just finally solved it. Gmail can handle emails up to 20mb in size. I realized I had one email that was trying to be imported was 30mb. After deleting that email, Gmail appears to be importing all the rest |

Roystemp's answer works for me except that Gmail says that the maximum filesize is 25Mb, not 20Mb. I had several to be fetched exceeding 20Mb but I only needed to delete the one file greater than 25Mb. Now everything seems to be working OK. Thanks Ro |

The line ""Line length exceeded limit: Line too long" means that one message is too long and transfer of all files are stopped. Instead, I would like to have the error message: This message is too big (and the title and date of the message) and then |

In my case, it was exactly what bkc56 suggested. I had recently added a long filter and that's what clogged it up. I never would have figured that out... I kept looking at the emails that hadn't been retrieved and there was nothing large or out of |
