MGA8-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50
No istallation issues.
$ fetchmailconf 
Gives fetchmaillauncher.
Lets me define my hotmail account and then in fetchmail run window:
7 messages for herman.viaene@hotmail.be op pop3.live.com (677810 bytes).
read message herman.viaene@hotmail.be@AMS-efz.ms-acdc.office.com:1 van 7 (91938 bytes) removed
....other 6 times
Done.
Looks OK to me.
