Here is the script:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

# Holt sich von fetchmail die Anzahl Mails und gibt diese aus.
#
# Author: Gerhard Siegesmund <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

FETCHMAIL='/usr/bin/fetchmail'

while true; do
  $FETCHMAIL -c | sed -e 's/.* \([0-9]*\) messages (\([0-9]*\) seen.*/\1 - 
\2/g' | bc
  sleep 60
done
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any suggestions?
