Did you try running it with "-U" option for UIDL ?
Did you try AUTO instead of POP3?

My functioning /etc/fetchmailrc is

poll pop3.server.isp.com:
    # server options
    with nodns,
    with protocol pop3,
    # user options
    user my-account-name there, is, my-account-name here,
    with stripcr,
    with password can-not-show;

So yours should work from user account. :)
