hello,
is it possible to use pop3.el (instead of movemail) from Rmail in order
to retrieve messages from a remote pop3 account?

If you do
M-x apropos RET movemail RET
you see there is a function `mail-source-movemail'
as well as `pop3-movemail'
and a variable `mail-source-movemail-program'.
What happens if you set the variable to pop3-movemail?
If you don't manage, consider switching to Gnus which
comes with considerably more steam.
