I'm guessing that Gmail's SSL certificate uses imap.gmail.com instead of
pop.gmail.com. Read the section on --sslcommonname in fetchmail(1).

poc

  

Your error seems to point at smtp set up on your local server:

fetchmail: connection to localhost:smtp [127.0.0.1/25] failed: Connection refused.
fetchmail: SMTP connect to localhost failed
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from xxx pop gmail com and delivering to SMTP host localhost
fetchmail: Query status=10 (SMTP)


Although I also see the error mentioned it retrieves the mail:

fetchmail -u slwetmore pop.gmail.com --keep --ssl
Enter password for slwetmore pop gmail com:
fetchmail: Server CommonName mismatch: imap.gmail.com != pop.gmail.com
1 message for slwetmore at pop.gmail.com.
