Fetchmail is not collecting emails correctly

Hello. I deployed Proxmox Mail Gateway version 8.2 on my Hyper-V hypervisor. After configuring fetchmail according to the administrator's guide https://pmg.proxmox.com/pmg-docs/pmg-admin-guide.html#pmgconfig_fetchmail, emails are collected successfully. However, I'm seeing a strange error in the logs for some email addresses:
Bash:
Authorization failure on e.ischenko@tds.kz@imap.ya.ru (previously authorized)
So, for some reason, the IMAP server address is appended to username@mydomain, even though this user is configured correctly in the User Management - Fetchmail GUI. To confirm, I'll provide data from the generated file /etc/pmg/fetchmailrc
Bash:
poll proxmox0044 via "imap.ya.ru"
 protocol imap port 993
 interval 1
 user "user@example.org" pass "StrongPassW0rd"
 to "user@example.loc"
 dropdelivered ssl keep
Please tell me what the problem might be?

UPDATE: The problem is solved. Two days later, fetchmail started collecting emails correctly on its own. I didn't do anything. Strange, but oh well.
