I don't know "getmail", but "fetchmail" runs here since 10 years
without any problems. Just put a line like
poll securepop.t-online.de proto pop3
user "mail@there", with password "pass@there", is "mail@here" here, ssl;
into /etc/fetchmailrc, adjust polling_period="300" in
/etc/conf.d/fetchmail, and that's it. (Of course, the usual
stuff like "/etc/init.d/fetchmail start" and "rc-update
add fetchmail default".)
