I think all the mail clients use pop or imap and such, but then use their own transport and storage mechanism. Modest only downloads headers and then downloads the body when requested. I don't think it's impossible, but as a device for consumers, I would assume that it is unlikely to work using fetchmail, ever, out of the box. It's more of a work station rather than a server, I think.
