If I run `fetchmail -vvvc', the tail of output shows:

        1324764631.3974 = SEEN
        1324764631.3975 = SEEN
          [...] snipped 17 more similar line

        1324764631.4032 = SEEN

Even if I've just run `fetchmail -vvva'  making sure fetchmail knows
to retrieve all seen or not.

At a glance it seems to be reporting mail on the server that has been
viewed.

But, even in ~/.fetchmailrc I've told fetchmail `fetchall'

Maybe those `SEEN' lines mean something else?

my server is fastmail.com

~/.fetchmailrc (email addr and passwd munged):
  # set timeout 40
  # set daemon 600
  # set logfile /home/reader/t/var/log/fetchmail.log

  poll pop.fastmail.com  proto POP3 user MUNGED  password MUNGED.
