UUCP seems to do a pretty good job. Can shedule big mails for later. Also can pick up from where it left off, good thing for locations with sucky lines.
Downside : Service providers don't provide it. But if ur fortunate enough to have ur own servers...

Why do you think fecthmail sucks? It does a neat job. What alternative do you suggest anyway?
Actually, what I'd like from fetchmail, is a way to limit the max size of mails downloaded based on the total size of the mailbox.
Basically, you want to be able to set filters in fetchmail (and NOT procmail). More precisely, you want to apply filters *before* downloading a message (on the headers, maybe (TOP 0)). That's what even I've been looking for. But I can't complain because I *am* a programmer and I *have* the source code. Don't have the time though.
