If you don't want to run fetchmail from CRON or something then what I'm
suggesting is that you use the way Postfix is started under SystemD to
create the necessary entry to run Fetchmail.

Why shouldn't he? Let us try to keep stuff simple stupid (KISS). :)

Create a clone: copy the Postfix SystemD entry to one named
fetchmail.service (or whatever is suitable) and edit its contents to
start up fetchmail instead of postfix.

Even that's not needed as there is a fetchmail service defined in
/etc/init.d/ as soon as the fetchmail package gets installed.

And _all_ services from /etc/init.d/ are also considered by systemd.

"Why doen't anyone speak about this?"

Read http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2011-12/msg00620.html

Looks more like nobody likes to listen. ;)
