Good question.  You say absolutely nothing about your setup that would
help direct you, however:

1) Check your mail log.  If you've configured fetchmail to use syslog
this will be the same as your postfix server.  Otherwise it'll be
somewhere else.

2) Try a mail check in verbose mode: "fetchmail -c --nosyslog -v -v"
