You can start fetchmail as root, you will need a .fetchmailrc in /root.
Then in your fetchmailrc, you can have something like:
poll some.mail.server protocol POP3:
username gary password linux is user blerk here
Then root will forward all of the mails to gary to your user blerk on
your local machine.
