First thing: change those passwords this minute, assuming they are real 
and not faked.


Second, you can make any program run in English, assuming you are using 
Linux. Create this script:

cer@Telcontar:~> cat /usr/local/bin/ingles
#!/bin/sh
LANG=en_US.UTF-8 \
   LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 \
   DICTIONARY=english \
   KDE_LANG=en_US.UTF-8 \
   LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8:en \
   exec "$@"
cer@Telcontar:~>


Then you can do:

ingles fetchmail ...

and it will run in English instead of the language you have by default, 
so that everybody in an international mail list can read the error messages.


Guesing, your fetchmail is using a different configuration file than the 
one you think.
