what does your /etc/resolv.conf look like?
also, why use fetchmail? won't kmail or something else work for you?

Subject: [newbie] Reverse DNS?
I've been trying to transfer mail with fetchmail but having a recurring
problem. I connect with kppp, telling it to use the remote DNS
servers, and then launch a konsole window to run fetchmail.
Fetchmail connects to the servers fine, but appears to try to
perform some sort of reverse DNS check on each mail, flushing
each one from the local cache. I presume it's trying to use a local
nameserver.
Can anyone help? This problem is forcing me to continue using
windoze for my e-mail.
Cheers. James.
