This is easy to do. Just set "mda" to procmail in your .fetchmailrc.
For example, mine is (save for a lot of other things that are
irrelevant in this case):
** cut **
defaults
fetchall
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d <locallogin>"
poll <remoteserver> with proto pop3, tracepolls:
user "<remotelogin>" password "<remotepassword>"
** cut **
Then, create your ~/.procmailrc. While experimenting you may want to
keep this recipe at the very top:
** cut **
:0cw
$DEFAULT
** cut **
This will ensure that a copy (`c' flag) of each message is always
written to your inbox. The `w' flag tells procmail to check to see if
the delivery succeeded before continuing. You can also replace
$DEFAULT above with an explicit path, for example
`/home/don/mail.copy'.
