  |  The ~/.fetchmailrc works on my slink system, with no problems.

  |  server mail.dslspeed.com
  |            protocol POP3
  |            username      yyyyy
  |            password      xxxxxx
  |            fetchall

Do you have different usernames on the two machines (yours and the
servers)?  I'm no fetchmail expert, but I run it as a daemon when my
ppp connection is up and my .fetchmailrc file indicates how to make the
translation of usernames.
