Based on feedback from Max (big Thanks!) in:
https://lore.proxmox.com/pmg-devel/DD2PXG51NFKF.2D5G45FY3K66F@proxmox.com/T/#t
The handling of fetchmail config can probably still be improved, but
restarting the daemon, when something changes (it was the easiest way
I found to get fetchmail to re-read its config) should improve UX
quite a bit. IIRC currently changing the config still requires
restarting fetchmail on the commandline (or rebooting).
