.. check out the fetchmail FAQ at:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/fetchmail/fetchmail-FAQ.html
 (sections X6 & X7)

Based on this info its prob the server doing something strange at its end and killing the connection.

SME6.x uses fetchmail 5.9 wheras SME7 is now using 6.2 tho a quick look through the changelog doesn't seem to indicate much that would help.

A chat with your ISP would seem to be the best option.
