Fetchmail delivers to postfix, so it does not need to know anything 
about where postfix get's its users from.
If you can send email to your postfix users, fetchmail will be able to 
do so as well.
Fetchmail will not ever directly modify any of your mail servers files - 
that is always a task for your MDA (postfix in your case)
