请帮助我，我在尝试获取特定电子邮件时遇到 MemoryError。这是错误信息：

MemoryError

这是我的代码：

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

我正在使用 python 2.3.5

提前致谢！

【解决方案1】：

MemoryError 通常表示您的系统已用完可用内存。也许您的 Python 脚本保留了对它看到的所有消息的引用，并且它们的总和太大而无法放入内存？

【讨论】：

我已经尝试获取耗尽内存的特定消息，它的大小几乎是 5MB。我对python相当陌生，关于如何有效地获取大消息的任何建议，尤其是那些带有大附件的消息。谢谢！
