fetchmailrc is just fine. I run it *manually* and it sucessfully
retrieve all my email. I retrive mail for 3 different accounts (thru
local mta).

/var/log/maillog only has stuff regarding qmail, nothing about
fetchmail

Yes. In /etc/ppp/ppp.linkdown I added fetchmail --quit, so, if it is
connected, it will check every 'x' minutes, and 'x' is much larger than
my connection idle timeout.
