There is a small problem with your configuration, when you define
bbmail.mailbox.1.proc: <program> it expects
<program> to return two integer values representing
unread and read mail. You can use this to check mail remotely. For
instance you can use bbmailparsefm.pl (in the scripts directory) for
checking remote mail using fecthmail -c.
It seems you want to check the mail you got to your local machine using
fetchmail. So just comment out the bbmail.mailbox.1.proc: line and run
fetchmail as deamon.
If you want to keep the mail on a remote machine do:
bbmail.mailbox.1.proc: bbmailparsefm.pl
Hope this makes sense,
