You're right about the smtphost but that isn't what we're looking for. Look at 
this:

.fetchmailrc:

poll mail.laurijssens.nl with proto POP3 and options no dns
    aka mailhost2.freehosting.nl
    localdomains laurijssens.nl
       user '******' there with password '*****' is frank pamela here warnings 
3600
    smtphost pamfrank-dfm.thuis.laurijssens.nl
    antispam 571 550 501 554

The header of your message:

Received: from localhost ([172.18.1.1]) by lauri079.speed.planet.nl;
         Sun, 18 Nov 2001 19:27:39 +0100
Received: from mail.laurijssens.nl
        by localhost with POP3 (fetchmail-5.9.0)
        for frank(_at_)laurijssens(_dot_)nl (multi-drop); Sun, 18 Nov 2001 
19:34:17 +0100 (CET)
Received: from saturn.ccil.org (mail(_at_)saturn(_dot_)ccil(_dot_)org 
[192.190.237.112])
        by mailhost2.freehosting.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA31936
        for <frank(_at_)laurijssens(_dot_)nl>; Sun, 18 Nov 2001 19:13:54 +0100

It's the localhost here we're after. Where does that one come from?

I seem to remember that fetchmail tries to deliver to the MTA 
on localhost 
if you don't tell it otherwise.  If you told it to use your 
mail server 
address it should solve your problem:

smtphost: mailhost.my.domain
