The '<' lines are received by fetchmail from your MTA.  This is just
the tail end of the 'ehlo' response.

| fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<user@notadomaina.com> SIZE=4018

fetchail says who the mail is from.

| fetchmail: SMTP< 550-5.4.3 reject sender 'user@notadomaina.com'.
| fetchmail: SMTP< 550-5.4.3 Failure trying to verify address target domain 'notadomaina.com'.
| fetchmail: SMTP< 550 5.4.3 Reason given was:

You have your MTA configured to (permanently) reject mail for which it
can't verify the existance of the domain.

| I would like to not reject spam,

When the only client of your MTA is fetchmail, you can't realistically
reject stuff at that level anyways.  Reconfigure your MTA (looks like
it is smail, based on other debug output in your message) so that it
accepts everything passed to it.
