No, if I add this line, my fetchmail process will hang after fetching
the first message and complaing about "ETRN connection to
dummy.invalid failed: host is unknown". Here's the excerpt from the
logfile:

fetchmail: POP3> QUIT
fetchmail: POP3< The power and effects of Cialis stay in your body 9 TIMES LONGER than VlAGRA!
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from xxx.xxx.de
fetchmail: 6.2.5.1 querying xxx.xxx.de (protocol APOP) at Tue Jul 26 12:06:35 2005: poll completed
fetchmail: Query status=10 (SMTP)
fetchmail: 6.2.5.1 querying dummy.invalid (protocol ETRN) at Tue Jul 26 12:06:35 2005: poll started
ETRN connection to dummy.invalid failed: host is unknown.
fetchmail: 6.2.5.1 querying dummy.invalid (protocol ETRN) at Tue Jul 26 12:06:35 2005: poll completed
fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)
fetchmail: normal termination, status 2
