Fetchmail doesn't drop mail into any box. It delivers the
mail to your local machine using SMTP. That is, it sucks the mail from your
provider using IMAP, POP or what have you and then it contacts Sendmail
(or some other agent) running at port 25 on your local machine. It's that
agent which determines where the mail goes.
Try playing with the configuration of your local mail transfer agent.
Sendmail can be made to do just about anything if you put enough time and
effort into it. :)
