It depends upon _how_ fetchmail is being run. If it is being run stand
alone, you could write a wrapper script that checks for exit codes 0 and 13
(both of which indicate that mail was delivered) and exectute the other
script based on that.
If you are dealing with a fetchmail daemon, you will likely need to look
into something on the order of a biff or buffy program that allows you
define a script to run when new mail is detected.
