I have fetchmail-5.5.0-2. All the mails downloaded by fetchmail are sent to MTA
(sendmail) and I have found these mails going to /var/spool/mqueue for some
minutes and later goes to their local folder. I am using sendmail in queued
mode, so
is it due to this queued mode feture of sendmail which is redirecting the mails
to
queued directory? If yes, how can I enable fetchmail to put the mails directly
to the
local mailboxes.

I am using fetchmail and sendmail as a dialup mailserver. I have
configured
sendmail to operate in queued Delivery mode. So whenever any users connect
to
my server and send mail, then their mails are first queued and then sent
when
connection is made. But this option has also resulted that all the mails
downloaded
by fetchmail are also put in /var/spool/mqueue. Is there any option to send
mail
directly to their mailbox when fetchmail downloads mails from pop server.
You don't mention versions so it's rather hard to be specific. However
sendmail supports multiple queues and you may find that setting it up so
that email from localhost is sent to a different queue works.
Failing that, try just telling fetchmail to use your local delivery agent
directly.
Please DO NOT send me ANY email directly unless it's a privacy issue.
