It doesn't work because it's not expected to work. You were trying to use STARTTLS. getmail doesn't support STARTTLS; it only does traditional/legacy IMAP-over-SSL/TLS. Mick is correct; just leave the port number out of your getmailrc file. getmail has the correct default built-in; you only need to specify a port if the IMAP server is running on a non-standard port.
