I'm not. I run fetchmail manually from a shell (or in daemon mode via
`fetchmail -d 300` or similar). It pulls mail down into my spool and
then when I fire up RMAIL it takes whatever is in the spool and puts it
into it's ~/RMAIL file. I have heard you can get RMAIL to run external
getting functions but I have never looked into it as I find my setup
fine.
I have nothing special in my ~/.emacs file for this. Only a few settings
for quoting replys and my from name and email address.
Sorry I can't be more help.
