Oopsie. Apparantly, fetchmail accepts a list of hosts for --smtphost, and
"localhost" is automatically added as the final item. Result being that
doing this will get you looping mails if the connection to the laptop
fails.
There must be a way to disable this behaviour, but the manpage is long and
it isn't leaping out at me :/
