That's fine, we're doing our best to understand.  By the way, please don't
top-post - trim the material you quote to just what's necessary, and post your
text underneath the relevant part, like this.

You're talking about what happens to messages after getmail delivers them, I
think -- no, getmail has no influence over how your MUA displays messages as
"read" or "new".

It sounds like you're retrieving your mail with getmail but you don't actually
want to read it - like you're retrieving it only for backup purposes.  If
that's the case, consider having getmail deliver to a different folder/mailbox
than your normal "inbox" containing your new mail.
