is there some option that will prevent fetchmail to print passwords
as cleartext (replacing it with XXXXXXXX or PASSWORD or any other string)
in the logs of fetchmail -v ?
What version are you running? Fetchmail already shrouds passwords. If
you're seeing them, that's a bug.

[The disarming of citizens] has a double effect, it palsies the hand
and brutalizes the mind: a habitual disuse of physical forces totally
destroys the moral [force]; and men lose at once the power of
protecting themselves, and of discerning the cause of their
oppression.
