You've said:

      user 'deshmukh' there with password 'xxx' is 'deshmukh' here

The "is 'deshmukh' here" means that the appropriate local user is
deshmukh. If you want fetchmail to deliver to the local user sandip
instead, then say so:

      user 'deshmukh' there with password 'xxx' is 'sandip' here

Cheers,
