My bet is that it is because of the proxy. You can't run fetchmail with a http/s proxy ... that are 2-3/3-4 different protocols. If you want to run fetchmail you need to ask your network administrator to give you a route on port 110 (or whatever you need) in the firewall. He can do this only for your IP.
