My guess would be to fetch your mail in a network type situation. Get your mail then use the text viewer to look at it. I could be wrong though.

Basically you're right, you would use this on the command line to retrieve your mails, but somebody could now write a front-end GUI that uses this.

Fetchmail does what it says on the tin, fetchs mail. You don't really need a GUI, a script would do. The mail is placed in your mailbox, only problem is there's no mail reader.
