I have alsway run fetchmail manually from the command line. Before the
update fetchmail used to indicate the progress by printing dots for each
kilobyte of message data it retrieved. After the update it stopped doing
that and I haven't changed my config file for ages. Btw I don't remeber
which version of fetchmail I was using before the update :(

Here is my config file without the lines containing usernames and
passwords:

# Configuration created Thu Oct  3 14:40:04 2002 by fetchmailconf
set syslog
set postmaster ""
set nobouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
#set daemon 900
