Can you clarify what you mean by this?  I have fetchmail pass mail
to exim; but exim is not listening to port 25.  Or rather, it's not
*normally* listening to port 25 . . .are you saying that when fetchmail
is explicitly configured to invoke an MDA in /etc/fetchmailrc, that
MDA is briefly listening on port 25 until it's done receiving from
fetchmail, and then quits?

Confused, I am.
