Yes, *getmail* is fetching mail, note quite a replacement of fetchmail though, but aims at the same basic functions, while *grepmail* can do the same as procmail, not quite a replacement either. Fetchmail and procamil may be sometimes hard to deal with, but I believe they are the most powerful tools in their respective categories
