Fetchmail works great as a daemon indeed.  However, I think what he's
saying is that because his MTA is started in /etc/inittab instead of
somewhere else, it is coming up after Fetchmail gets going and thus,
fetchmail can't deliver to port 25.  I've never run a MTA from inittab, so
I'm not all that sure how you'd go about changing things.  Personally, I
prefer to run fetchmail from my own login rather than as root.
