There is one gotcha, you have to enable the "forcecr" option in your
.fetchmail configuration, if you're using delivery via localhost port
25.  This is documented as a "qmail quirk" (or something) in the
fetchmail documentation, but it *is* documented at least...  Without
this setting, qmail will reject the emails due to the CR/LF line ending
issue.

At least, it used to be this way.
