OK so either your username or password is wrong.

As I said, your email address doesn't matter as far as telling fetchmail 
the server.

However, some ISPs require you to login with your email address as the 
username, so you might try putting "user my...@is..." in your 
fetchmailrc instead of "user myname".

But this is all questions between you and your ISP.
