I'm guessing that it does go to root as 'postmaster' but can't figure
out why.

I did those, but no change...
FWIW, there are 2 of those DUL messages, then the message I sent.
BTW, on the old box 'service fetchmail start/stop/restart' works, but on
the new one that returns: 'fetchmail: unrecognised service', instead,
'fetchmail' starts the daemon and I have to use 'killall fetchmail' to
stop it. My guess is that that is connected to the version of
fetchmail, according to 'fetchmail -V' that's:
6.2.5+RPA+NTLM+SDPS+SSL+INET6+NLS on the old box and
6.3.6+GSS+RPA+NTLM+SDPS+SSL+HESIOD+NLS+KRB4+KRB5 on the new one.
