    fetchmail(1) includes:

       -m <command> | --mda <command>
              (Keyword: mda) You can  force  mail  to  be  passed  to  an  MDA
              directly (rather than forwarded to port 25) with the --mda or -m
              option.  To avoid losing mail, use this option  only  with  MDAs
              like  procmail or sendmail that return a nonzero status on disk-
              full and other resource-exhaustion errors;  the  nonzero  status
              tells  fetchmail  that  delivery failed and prevents the message
              from being deleted off the server.
