MemoryError when using imaplib fetch

[acgvelarde]

Hi,

Please help me, I am getting MemoryError when trying to fetch a specific email. This is the error message:

python(24622,0x 1888c00) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region

MemoryError

And here is my code for fetching

resp, content = _mailConnection.fetch(num, '(RFC822 FLAGS)')

I am using python 2.3.5

Thanks in advance!
