Andrew,
Fetchmail is a daemon that runs in the background and if you've already
set it up with fetchmailconf, then when you start X the daemon is running
already. It contacts the server when it senses a connection has been made,
therefore it doesn't need a shortcut in the autostart folder. However, the
imwheel thing does need a shortcut in the autostart folder. So you're
closed...just a bit reversed.
