Hi,

 Grateful if anyone could recommend a mail retrieval program which does
 not require a local SMTP service like fetchmail does.

From the fetchmail man page :
   -m command | --mda command
  (Keyword: mda) You can force mail to be  passed  to
  an  MDA directly (rather than forwarded to port 25)
  with the --mda or -m option.

Best regards,

Charles Longeau

username mcbride there has password mekmitasdigoat is mcbride here 
fetchall ssl mda /usr/local/bin/procmail -d %T
