I am sorry was there a question here? The closedest I see to a question is the statement that fetchmail is taking a long time. I would expect that 99.5% of this list have never used fetchmail. If you are fetching all your mail everytime, that is certainly not efficient, and probably means you have a bit to delete each time too. Can Fetchmail tag or move a message that it has fetched so it does not retrieve it next time?
