Ok, having got home and checked, that should have been AFTER the user
line - apologies.  It should look something like the following:

poll zencphosting09.zen.co.uk with proto pop3
        user "su...@ly..." password "xxxxxx"
        ssl sslfingerprint "01:A0:29:54:2F:03:DB:AE:79:8D:B8:B9:BB:9A:1F:9A"
        is anne fetchall

(Or at least, that's basically what works for me).

If that doesn't work, please include the entire .fetchmailrc, editing
only passwords/usernames.
