If that is everything, you have a problem - there is no
Envelope/Delivered-To header (and you're abusing the "To" header for
that purpose).

Are you sure?  Those lines aren't valid fetchmail config entries and
should cause fetchmail to error.

And that's not how you use the envelope command either - RTFM.

In short, you can't.  Fetchmail isn't designed to work that way.
