My personal recommendation is to scrap fetchmail.  It is a bloated pig,
that tries to juggle too many balls at the same time.  The POP3 protocol is
simple enough that you can implement a POP3 client in Perl, or any other
rudimentary script.  Write your own POP3 client, and be done with it.  I
use my own POP3 client that I wrote three years ago, in C++, but I don't
maintain it any more.  It does it's job, and nothing more.  Doesn't try to
parse header, or implement an SMTP client, just grabs the E-mail from the
POP3 server, and puts it into the mailbox.  That's what POP3 clients should
do, IMO.
