Try envelope_to_add = yes, and get the end user to configure his fetchmail to
look at the Envelope_To header. This normally solves this one.

ie:
defaults proto pop3
         envelope Envelope-to
         smtpaddress domain.com


in the fetchmailrc file.

The only gotcha is locally hosted mailing lists - be wary.
