Fedora does not ship fetchmailconf.
Btw. a fetchmailrc is really simple to set up. No need for a GUI. An
example as follows:
$ cat /home/username/.fetchmailrc
set postmaster "username"
set properties ""
set no bouncemail
set no spambounce
set no syslog
set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log
poll mailaccount_yourservice
proto imap
via name.of.mail.server
port 993
timeout 60
tracepolls
user "mail_login_name"
pass "secret_pass"
is username at localhost
ssl
nokeep
fetchall
This is an *example* (feeding a local MTA). Customize it to fit your
needs. "man fetchmail" and "fetchmail --help" explain every possible
setting.
