Huh?
<snippet of fetchmail -vv>
fetchmail: forwarding to localhost
fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL
FROM:<bounce-debian-user=egm2=jps.net@lists.debian.org> SIZE=2891
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 <bounce-debian-user=egm2=jps.net@lists.debian.org>
is syntactically correct
fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<felix@localhost>
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 <felix@localhost> is syntactically correct
fetchmail: SMTP> DATA
fetchmail: SMTP< 354 Enter message, ending with "." on a line by itself
</snippet>
Fetchmail doesn't *have* to use SMTP for delivery, but I believe that is
the default.
