Polling every 10 sec's is rude behaviour towards your
i.s.p. .. Don't do that.

The command:
fetchmail --version
Will show all your options set in your .fetchmailrc and if they are
accepted by fetchmail..

A rather typical ~/.fetchmailrc

poll pop.myisp1.nl
proto POP3
username president
password UsCliNton
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d clinton"
set logfile "/var/log/fetch.log"

Of course every command listed in your .fetchmailrc can be given on the
command-line as options to fetchmail.
