The administrator account has by default no right to start services. You can add that right by calling
editrights -u administrator -a SeServiceLogonRight

thx but that wasn't it either, however have worked around by pointing cygrunsrv --path to a script hehe
cygrunsrv -I fetchmail --path /bin/bash.exe -a /home/Administrator/sh.sh --shutdown
$ cat sh.sh #!/bin/bash
exec su Administrator -c "/bin/fetchmail -N" < /home/Administrator/pass.txt
