In SuSE 8.2 using Evolution to access a POP mail account on a remote server, does the mail go through fetchmail or postfix on the local machine or does it go directly to Evolution?

I do not use Evolution but it seems pretty obvious that you can set Evolution, or any other mailer, to either take the mail from the Pop3 server, or from local spool.

To disable it, you could uninstall fetchmail. S.H.
