The website uses a redirector and works for me - does your downloader follow
redirects? It needs to.

Any logs?

The wildcard maps external users to the same users in your local domain.

The "is jeffklotz.com here" is actually just appended to the to list, but
cancels the prior wildcard, so fetchmail reads this as:

...
     user "**********@mydogbosco.com" password "**********"
     to
	 je...@my...=je...@je...
     	 jk...@my...=je...@je...
     	 jeffklotz.com
     here
     fetchall rewrite

Solutions depend on what you're trying to achieve:

1. if you want all unlisted addresses 1:1, i. e. fo...@my... as
foo@localhost, then just remove the "is". Note that "jeffklotz.com" will be
considered a remote user name recognized, and is redundant with "*".

2. if you instead want all other mail (not explicitly listed) to go to
jeffklotz.com, remove the "is jeffklotz.com" part, and write, before the poll, a
line:

set postmaster jeffklotz.com


Fetchmail should probably complain about multiple mapping lists in the
configuration...
