+<NL>
+<LI> Install socks5. You don't need to have a socks server, you just
+     want the "runsocks" program.
+<LI> Set the environment variable SOCKS_SERVER to the server you'll be
+     using. Alternatively, you may set SOCKS4_SERVER and/or
+     SOCKS5_SERVER. Eg: 
+<pre>
+	export SOCKS5_SERVER=socks.my.domain.com
+</pre>.
+<LI> Set SOCKS5_USER and SOCKS5_PASSWD if needed.
+<LI> Run fetchmail through runsocks. Just like this:
+<pre>
+	runsocks fetchmail [parameters to fetchmail]
+</pre>
+</NL>

+It wasn't that hard, was it? :-)<P>
