But *why*?  

Fetching them in the background with fetchmail doesn't force you to read
them.  And if you don't use any fancy notification mechanism, fetching
them in the background will just make it faster for Gnus to fetch them
in /var/mai/anhmncb

While I perfectly understand one wants not to be nagged by incoming
emails all the time, I really think fetching them over the network when
you want to read them is *not* the solution.
