I think the syntax is "user shauno is shaun here" assuming your local
account is shaun and your pop3 account is shauno.  I don't have to deal
with this however, as I run fetchmail as the user that it's intended for.
This has its advantages - you can control polling for mail on a
user-by-user basis.  Running it this way, you need only do "user shauno" as
it will deliver to the account running the process.
