True. I think my problem in this regard is that I used SuSE for a couple 
years and they setup fetchmail as a daemon so I thought this was kosher. 
But now that I think about it...

Anyway, I only want to run it for two people. Would I just run both of 
them in daemon mode?

Maybe. We're just individual users, though, so just being able to pop the 
email is easier if we can do it.
