Sure enough the mail is fetched to local incoming spool. *BUT* it is snatched from the parent incoming spool, so that the parent (remote) looses access. This is not what I was after. I want both machines to be able to process the same mail in whatever way needed. Back to duplicating with procmail on parent (remote) . But how to aim fetchmail at the duplicated spool? Maybe a dummy account for the laptop to access... I'll try that.
