It may be a sendmail issue, too. You could try first not running fetchmail in
daemon mode but start it normally and have it being verbous: fetchmail -v
This may give you some more info on what is going on while fetchmail fetches
mail. 

How does your sendmail config look like? AFAIK you need a working sendmail
even for fetching mail. For that, you have to MASQ as the mail server if you
do not have or run one on a fully qualified domain host. 

I'll send you my Sendmail.mc which I create my sendmail.cf from. Maybe it
will help you. There you can see the correct entries for having sendmail work
the way you like it. If I understood correctly, that is.

As you can see, gmx.net is my mail host. Refer to the readme in 
/usr/share/sendmail/cf IIRC for the entries and what they are about.
