As you've already established, fetchmail running as a system daemon
cannot use individual users' ~/.fetchmailrc config files.  However, if
you want to make it as seamless as possible for the end users, running
the daemon automatically for the users is very simple.  Just add this at
the tail end of the users' .bash_profile or in the system wide
/etc/profile:

/sbin/pidof fetchmail >/dev/null || fetchmail
