The problem with Mail.app
I'm not entirely sure why this fix in necessary -- why not just leave Mail.app running with the timed fetch option switched on?
The problem with Mail.app
Of course you can use fetchmail to retrieve mail and drop it in a Unix box! You don't even need to run a cron job using a script, because fetchmail can retrieve mail periodically already. For example, the following .fetchmailrc will retrieve POP mail every 300 secs:
set postmaster "user"
set daemon 300 #poll every 300 secs
poll your.mail.server with proto POP3
user "user" there with password "passw" is "login" here options stripcr
This will drop mail in your "user" UNIX mailbox, which you can then read in with Mail.app.
