Just so you know....

Fetchmail - fetches your email
Procmail - Processes your email
Sendmail - Sends your email

With that out of the way...  no.  Fetchmail will not do that.  HOWEVER, 
Procmail can filter your email to an almost endless extent and have it sent 
almost anywhere.  I use it for simple stuff like my mail, her mail, 
spam.  the HOWTO is not too bad.  Do a google search on it too.
