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.
