I'm sure this is a question that's been asked a lot... I googled and
didn't find much of anything. 

I set up a "G" macro to run my fetchmail. But, I get an error saying
that I need to "own" my /etc/fetchmailrc. That's root - he owns it. 

Is there any kind of work-around for this? I tried a symlink, but Mutt
didn't like that either. 

I'm on dial-up and would like an easy keystroke to get my mail.

Thanks.
