Yes, you have it right.  It is not just a matter of PostFix rejecting the 
mail; I could configure PostFix differently, but only at the expense of

distinguish this email by having it use a proper hostname on the HELO 
line.  I get the impression that Fetchmail doesn't let you control what it 
says on the HELO line, though I couldn't quite find it in the 
documentation.


Perhaps you could include 127.0.0.1 in $mynetworks of postfix and setup
your helo checks accordingly.
