Create a procmail recipe to deliver the mail to the user mailbox.
If fetchmail is being run by root then put a .fetchmailrc in root's
directory or you can set one up in /etc. If it is a user account you are
running fetchmail create a .fetchmailrc in the users directory. The most
important line is to use
is localuseraccountname here
sample .fetchmailrc
set postmaster "username"
set logfile .mailfetch-log
poll mail.servername.net with proto POP3 uidl
user 'pop3_username'
pass 'pop3_password'
is localuseraccountname here
keep
## end of .fetchmailrc
You can use a .procmailrc recipe to catch anything to a
certain pop3_accounts name in the header.
