Have you tried it with a vanilla kernel? Do you use special wlan drivers like ipw2100 or ipw2200? > The suspend script shuts down my > ehternet device before stopping all processes and then goes into suspend > state.

Just my two, no, three > cents. :-) I really don't think this is a fetchmail issue, fetchmail doesn't touch your network configuration, it just send the packages through your network device driver but doesn't handle it. I am pretty shure that this bug is on your site. I just tested it with Suspend to RAM/Disk I can not reproduce it.
