I cant make Mailutils movemail to work with my imap remote mailbox.
Can Rmail use other alternatives , eg : fetchmail ?

Yes, it can use.
Please post your movemail settings. I will try to re-construct from
Lisp, how I use movemail:
$ timeout 10m /usr/bin/movemail -m v 'imaps://USERNAME:PASSWORD@IMAP.EXAMPLE.COM:994/INBOX' "~/Maildir/"
Is that how you use it?

Posteo gives:
incoming mail server (IMAP):
With STARTTLS using port 143, or
with SSL/TLS encryption using port 993
$ cd ~
$ mkdir -p ~/mailFromMovemail/{cur,new,tmp}
I have tried:
$ movemail -m -vv \
'imaps://foo:***@posteo.eu:993/INBOX' \
"~/mailFromMovemail"
I tried to add my full username but i read that
instead of foo@posteo.eu i should use foo%40posteo.eu
$ movemail --debug-level='mailbox.prot' -p -vvv \
'imaps://foo%40posteo.eu:***@posteo.de:993/INBOX' \

We may solve it on GNU Mailutils mailing list... let us see what
Sergey, author, thinks about it.

With help from Sergey the issue was solved. To sum up for
future reference ,for anyone out there debian buster user
trying to use movemail as a mail retrieval agent to emacs,
i post the main steps:
1. I compiled mailutils 3.11.1 (debian stable has 3.5 ).
That didnt work thought because as Sergey explained movemail used
old libs from the 3.5 dep package.
2. So i purged 3.5.
Again i couldnt access the remote posteo.de mailbox with imap.
3. Last touch:
$ sudo apt-get install libgnutls28-dev
And reconfigure and compile again so that mailutils have
GNUTls support (as you can validate at the end of './configure'
output.
And now it works.
$ movemail --debug-level='mailbox.prot' -vvv -p
'imap://foo%40posteo.net@posteo.de' "~/mailFromMovemail/"
ps:
(could step 2 also removed libgnutls28-dev ?)
$ sudo apt-cache depends libgnutls28-dev
.....
Replaces: <gnutls-dev>
libgnutls28-dev
Anyway. Problem solved.
Alexandros.

Don't know, the only reference to Fetchmail I found is this
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/UsingProcmailWithGnus
which is Gnus anyway and not Rmail.
