It sounds like you may have configured getmail to use SSLv3, but Python 3.10
may not support that old protocol.
When I run your command s_client command:
openssl s_client -connect fencepost.gnu.org:995
I see:
...
New, TLSv1.2, Cipher is AES256-GCM-SHA384
...
So newer TLS profiles should be supported by the server. Let me know if it
still doesn't work for you.
Thanks,
Andrew
