I wander how to config /etc/fetchmailrc
I configed it as below:

------------------------------
set postmaster "xyz"
set bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
poll imap.gmail.com with proto IMAP user XXXXX pass XXXXX ssl fetchall
------------------------------
my debian username is xyz

but all the mails is fetched to /var/mail/fetchmail, not /var/mail/xyz
I wander why and how to let all mails be fetched into /var/mail/xyz

BTW, I found all mails have been fetched is no longer in the INBOX, for my
gmail. I wander can I make mails stay in the INBOX.
