Fetchmail certainly can, if you're running a recent version (and it's
compiled with SSL support).  Help with fetchmail is probably best done
on the fetchmail-users mailing list, but ensure you're running the
current release first ;)

I use the following .fetchmailrc:

poll pop.gmail.com
	uidl
	proto pop3
	username "user" password "pass"
	to "me" here
	keep
	ssl

If you're not leaving mail on the server you can drop both the "uidl"
and "keep" lines.
