Bill, in your threat scenario, I think it best to avoid the daemon mode
altogether, and then just use some external random delay tool (possibly
some script language one-liner) to delay a one-shot fetchmail run.

You can always set up separate directories, for instance, by way of the
FETCHMAILHOME variable and configure each account at the same provider
separately.

Bottom line, this is much easier to solve outside fetchmail than inside. 
-> For me as the upstream maintainer, this is very near to a WONTFIX. Certainly 
at the end of the list of priorities.
