Long term you might need a hold or pin for that (my preference would be 
a pin).

Kind regards,

    hi Andrei,
    I felt that the description of the pinning process is rather
    confusing, either in the apt-get man or the aptitude man.
    Can you tell me what whould be the exact command to pin getmail?

best regards,

The relevant documentation is in apt_preferences(5). Pins are configured 
via /etc/apt/preferences or (my preference, no pun intended), files in 
/etc/apt/preferences.d/.

The manpage is quite complex and difficult to understand. Fortunately it 
has good examples for common uses.

I would argue that its understanding should be a prerequisite for 
complex setups like mixing releases[1] or pinning important parts of the 
system (python, not getmail).

[1] I wouldn't count stable+backports or unstable+experimental as these 
are supported by apt out-of-the box.

Kind regards,
Andrei
