I can not prove that offhand, but I believe there is a fetchmail
option to have the mail remain on the server or not, your choice in
the fetchmail config file.

Originally I had fetchmail setup to pull the mail and delete it from
the server. I have dovecot running so thunderbird would have no problems 
connecting to my MTA mailbox for reading/replying in the imap mode.

Replying or sending in that methodology no longer works because my
mail is being rejected because reverse dns look up fails because my MTA
is not in a registered domain or some such thing.
