I'm not disagreeing with JT, but you could try the following:

- verify syslog is running on your computer.

        ps -ef | grep syslog

        you should see something like:

        root      2306     1  0 Oct28 ?        00:00:00 /sbin/syslog-ng

- try tailing your messages file (i have to be root to do this on my box).

        tail -f /var/log/messages

Look for any output in there pertaining to "fetchmail",

Tom
