You can put this in your getmailrc file:

[options]
verbose = 1
delete = false
read_all = false
delete_after = 30
message_log = ~/.getmail/log


delete = false (tells getmail not to delete downloaded messages)
read_all = false (tells getmail to download only unseen messagers)
delete_after = 30 (tells getmail to delete messages older than 30 days)

This is from my .muttrc file:

# set up mutt so i can run getmail at any time by pressing Shift+g
# or Shift+v for verizon
macro index    G "!getmail\n"   "Invoke getmail"
macro pager    G "!getmail\n"   "Invoke getmail"
macro index    V "!getmail --rcfile verizon\n"   "Invoke getmail"
macro pager    V "!getmail --rcfile verizon\n"   "Invoke getmail"
