from `man fetchmail`:
Disposal Options
-a, --all
(Keyword: fetchall) Retrieve both old (seen) and
new messages from the mailserver. The default is
to fetch only messages the server has not marked
seen. Under POP3, this option also forces the use
of RETR rather than TOP. Note that POP2 retrieval
behaves as though --all is always on (see RETRIEVAL
FAILURE MODES below) and this option does not work
with ETRN or ODMR.
so by default, only new messages are downloaded, unless you use the -a,
--all, or the 'fetchall' option.
