i did pretty much the same thing without success :(

but the sslcertfile option in the default section of my .fetchmailrc finaly 
solved the problem:
he...@chiefwiggum:~> cat .fetchmailrc 
defaults 
    proto pop3 
    limit 0
    mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %T"
    sslcertfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt 

poll pop.1und1.de
    user "xxx" keep ssl

poll pop.gmx.net
    user "xxx" keep ssl


option sslcertfile in the fetchmail manpage and the update-ca-certificates 
manpage gave me the hint.

This email is not and cannot, by its nature, be confidential. En route 
from me to you, it will pass across the public Internet, easily readable 
by any number of system administrators along the way. If you have received 
this message by mistake, it would be ridiculous for me to tell you not to 
read it or copy to anyone else, because, let's face it, if it's a message
revealing confidential information or that could embarrass me intensely, 
that's precisely what you'll do. Who wouldn't? Likewise, it is superfluous 
for me to claim copyright in the contents, because I own that anyway, even 
if you print out a hard copy or disseminate this message all over the known 
universe. 
I don't know why so many corporate mail servers feel impelled to attach 
a disclaimer to the bottom of every email message saying otherwise. If 
you don't know either, why not email your corporate lawyers and system 
administrators and ask them why they insist on contributing so much to 
the waste of bandwidth? To say nothing of making the presence of your mail 
on public discussions or mailinglists of explicitly contratictory nature.
May as well just delete it, eh? Oh, and this message is probably plagued 
with viruses as well.
