Fetchmail not writing to log

I'm setting up fetchmail for use with Request Tracker on a RHEL 8 server. It's not working and I'm unable to troubleshoot because it doesn't appear to be writing to /var/log/syslog or /var/log/fetchmail.log. How do I get it to write to one of these logs?

Here's my /etc/fetchmailrc:

set daemon 60 set invisible set postmaster administrator set syslog set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log poll pop.gmail.com protocol pop3 port 995 username "[email protected]" password "xxxxxx" ssl mda "/var/www/html/requesttracker/bin/rt-mailgate --queue YLN --action correspond --url https://subdomain.example.com" nokeep 

I restart fetchmail after each fetchmailrc edit. What am I doing wrong?
