Question Help me configure fetchmail??

This might sound funny to you. Please consider this as any other help request and help me. I need to configure fetchmail. I have install Webmin and Usermin which provide a webmail interface to use with fetchmail, mailx and sendmail. When i download mails from my Gmail Account, fetchmail tries to send them to me@localhost using SMTP. I don't want that. The mails should directly goto my mailbox. The SMTP error is that user does not exist. SMTP server is localhost. I am not using any esmtp server or something. It directly authenticates with 127.0.0.1/25 Please help!!!

As it is that's what you're gonna do. Then why should someone take effort of answering.
See if you can find something here http://www.howtoforge.com/taxonomy_menu/1/78
Or try something like this http://rimuhosting.com/support/setti...&t=pop3outlook
Or go through this http://fetchmail.berlios.de/fetchmail-man.html
