Boy you mailutils guys really really blew it, perhaps.

You never guessed that the username might need to contain a "@", and be
independent of the hostname.

$ mail --file imaps://[email protected]:[email protected]
Cannot create mailbox 
imaps://[email protected]:[email protected]: Invalid port or 
service specification

So you need to put a workaround into
(info "(mailutils) Remote Mailboxes")

To prove that this really works, this works fine:
$ tail .getmail/getmailrc

[retriever]
server=homie.mail.dreamhost.com
type=SimpleIMAPSSLRetriever
port=993
[email protected]
password=MYPASS
