I need to start fetchmail at boot but I need it to run for three different user/email accounts. What is the easiest way to do this without using cron?

Do I have one .fetchmailrc that references three different mail accounts or do I somehow start three different ones with the different user accounts.

Scenario: I have some software that accepts incoming emails and processes each one based on the email address (abc@123.com goes to the abc project, xyz@123.com goes into the xyz project and so on.) No one will ever login in with accounts abc or xyz but I need the email processed accordingly.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Oh I've seen the other entries here for putting the relevant commands in rc.local - I just don't know what the command would be to start fetchmail for three different users/email accounts.

In case anyone cares I got this working by doing the following...

Put the .fetchmailrc in /root
The .fetchmailrc file contains all three email accounts.
Added fetchmail -f /root/.fetchmailrc to rc.local
