I'm not sure I know what you mean.

When you download your mail with fetchmail, it ends up in something
like /var/spool/mail/chuck. Then emacs is supposed to take your new
email from there. I don't know what mailer you are trying to use
inside emacs. For VM and have the following line in .vm:

(setq vm-spool-files '("/var/spool/mail/me"))

If you use something else (RMAIL?) check the docs. "^h i" will take
you there.
