Make absolutely sure that there are no fetchmail instances delivering 
mail to your mail queue. Check your mail logs for this.
When the traffic is stopped (daemon goes to sleep or all deliveries are 
done), make sure that fetchmail daemon is stopped 
(/usr/local/bin/fetchmail -q) or if it is run from cron, temporarily 
remove the entry.

As a general rule of thumb, if a port download breaks at some point you 
should start over, but first you should clean up the mess.
A "make distclean" and "make clean" inside the fetchmail port directory 
(/usr/ports/mail/fetchmail) will delete the half-downloaded file and 
clean up the work directory.

The half-downloaded file is in /usr/ports/distfiles
