I don't think so - from fetchmail(1):
-k, --keep
(Keyword: keep) Keep retrieved messages on the
remote mailserver. Normally, messages are deleted
from the folder on the mailserver after they have
been retrieved. Specifying the keep option causes
retrieved messages to remain in your folder on the
mailserver. This option does not work with ETRN.
It claims to work with all protocols except ESMTP/ETRN. Come to think of
it, I also use imap for fetching mail to my PalmPilot, and it allows me to
leave messages on my server. Cheers, Colin.
