Great, I'ld like to see their response. There does seem to be an
inconsistency here which hopefully they can resolve.

The current fetchmail code is intended to resort to 127.0.0.1 if all else
fails, (...MessageProcessor.computeRemoteDomain())...
// If a domain was not found, the default is the local host and
// if we cannot resolve this, the local address 127.0.0.1
// Note that earlier versions of this code simply used 'localhost'
// which works fine with java.net but is not resolved by dnsjava
// which was introduced in v2.2.0. See Jira issue JAMES-302.
if (domainBuffer.length() == 0)
{
try
{
InetAddress addr1 = java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost();
// These shenanigans are required to get the fully qualified
// hostname prior to JDK 1.4 in which getCanonicalHostName()
// does the job for us
InetAddress addr2 =
java.net.InetAddress.getByName(addr1.getHostAddress());
InetAddress addr3 =
java.net.InetAddress.getByName(addr2.getHostName());
domainBuffer.append(addr3.getHostName());
}
catch (UnknownHostException ue)
{
domainBuffer.append("[127.0.0.1]");
}
}
As you can hack, please try the version at
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/server/trunk/src/java/org/apache/james
/fetchmail/ and report back.
