Just a guess but it doesn't look like you are telling fetchmail who to
send the remote mail to on the local machine.
>From the fetchmail man page.
Here's what a simple retrieval configuration for a multi-
drop mailbox looks like:
poll pop.provider.net:
user maildrop with pass secret1 to golux hurkle=happy snark here
This says that the mailbox of account `maildrop' on the
server is a multi-drop box, and that messages in it should
be parsed for the server user names `golux', `hurkle', and
`snark'. It further specifies that `golux' and `snark'
have the same name on the client as on the server, but
mail for server user `hurkle' should be delivered to
client user `happy'.
