Almost. Change .authinfo.gpg to .authinfo since you have not encrypted
the file (ignore this advice if you are actually using an encrypted file
and sent an unencrypted simulacrum).

Almost. You should change its name to .authinfo (since it is not
encrypted). And the line is missing the port information (see my example
a few lines above).

No. Emacs has two email clients, Rmail and Gnus. It sounds like Rmail is
being started by "Get Mail".
To try out Gnus with your new configuration, start a fresh emacs
instance and type
M-x gnus RET
(remember the conventions we discussed last email).
Please report back.
Best,
