You can still use mutt to trigger fetchmail, and you can still use 
<ctrl+g> to trigger it. For example:

     macro index \cg '<shell-escape>fetchmail -s<enter>'

The advantage is that fetchmail can feed each message to an MDA (like 
procmail) whereas mutt can't (because it's doing all the delivery 
itself). The disadvantage is that you have to use a separate program, 
and it's slightly less obvious.
