Thanks for the feedback.

I do not think I will go for such features.

I want fetchmail to behave in a consistent and easily determined way,
rather than along many ifs and buts, meaning in particular I want it to
only ever use the one specific delivery path that is configured.

Another instance, disabling the "fallback" from SMTP to MDA was
something that happened at my insisting already before I became a
maintainer because it's just hard to track and tends to trigger false
reports about misfiled/lost mail.

Feel free to file a feature request on the sourceforge.net project page
(you need to be a registered user so I can ask questions and avoid
hit-and-run reports) so this does not get lost, but it is very low
priority for me and unlikely to happen in the next year.
