'fetchmail' is what the name say: It fetchs mail FROM an ISP's Server

What you need is a MTA (Mail-Transport-Agent) like

I have writen a SCRIPT which call all $USER fetchmailrc's
one after one. So I get never problems with resources, becaus the
$USER using procmail and filter with spamassasssin AND f-prot

The Script catch all 10 minutes the Messages from 176 E-Mail Accounts
