I'll stop you there. getmail has no idea whether messages have been read or not; it only keeps track of whether *getmail* has seen a particular message before or not. > The option "read_all" seems not to be what I'm looking for You want read_all set to false. When you run getmail, it will download any messages that getmail has not seen before. It doesn't even ask the server if the server thinks the message has been read or not.
