I have made the changes as suggested with the full email address and I am still having error messages:

Have you tried your full email address as your user name?  "helpdesk at ticket.co.it" instead of just "helpdesk" most servers wont auth without the full email address anymore.

Please help

any chance of posting your fetchmailrc ?  Most common problem with this error is the lack of single quotes (') around the email address and password.
