That would be your problem; getmail doesn't do STARTTLS.  It does plain IMAP4,
and IMAP4-over-SSL.  STARTTLS support does not exist in the imap module of the
Python standard library, at least not in all the versions it would need to be
in for me to support it.

Use IMAP4-over-SSL if your server provides it.
