1. run fetchmail as fetchmail -v . This will give you show you what
fetchmail is actually doing.
2. fetchmail uses your local MTA (smail, sendmail, whatever), so check
its logfiles.
If you use smail they are in /var/log/smail
Also check /var/spool/smail/error /var/spool/smail/input and
/var/spool/smail/msglog for any clues.
