Du hast -F und -f verwechselt. fetchmail versucht /etc/fetchmailrc als
Providernamen aufzulösen.

man fetchmail:

 -F, --flush
POP3/IMAP only.  Delete old (previously retrieved) messages from the
mailserver before retrieving new messages. This option does not work
with ETRN or ODMR.  Warn­ ing: if your local MTA hangs and fetchmail
is aborted, the next time you run fetch­ mail, it will delete mail
that was never delivered to you.  What you probably want is the
default setting: if you don't specify `-k', then fetchmail will
automatically delete messages after successful delivery.

-f <pathname>, --fetchmailrc <pathname> 
Specify a non-default name for the ~/.fetchmailrc run control file.
The pathname argument must be either "-" (a single dash, meaning to
read the configuration from standard input) or a filename.  Unless the
--version option is also on, a named file argument must have
permissions no more open than 0600 (u=rw,g=,o=) or else be /dev/null.
