exactly this was the problem (no spaces allowed).
I followed all 3 howtos to install fetchmail + postfix + mutt.

1) Install a MRA (Mail Retrieval Agent) to receive Email via IMAP/POP
   => Fetchmail
  Install Howto: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/fetchmail/

2) Install a MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) to send Email via SMTP
   => Posfix
  Install Howto: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/postfix/

3) Install Textmail-Client
   => MUTT
   Install Howto: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/mutt/

In the end I was unable to receive emails with this setup and honestly I
didn't understand why I need to setup fetchmal+postfix to receive emails
which can just be pulled via IMAP, which seems to work fine with mutt.

reading some example configurations I was able to setup MUTT to connect to
googlemail for a test.

QUESTION:
In case I have created a mail account somewhere via a WebGUI and I have
used my anon-whonix App-VM nobody should know who this emails belongs to,
as I am hidden behind tor.
What do I need to do, so that all IMAP traffic is now also running via TOR
as I want to keep my identity protected, even when I use IMAP to get my
emails.
What needs to be done that IMAP goes over TOR? can this be done and if so
how should I set it up in Qubes?


To complete the information within this topic, my /home/user/.mutt/muttrc
looks like this (maybe helpfull for others searching the archives)
