But my main problem is still where do I apply maildrop. As getmail
does not require a SMTP, where do I use maildrop.

Please read the good documentation that ships with getmail - it's all
there!
Also, PLEASE PLEASE tell me where to get docs about
this so called filtering language of maildrop.
Read the maildropfilter and maildropex manpages, scan the mailinglist
archives for examples. There are two example .maildroprc files at
http://dotfiles.com
I have a feeling that procmail docs are more extensive
and simpler.
Maybe. But you could thange this: learn something about maildrop and
start writing "more extensive and simpler" documentation.
I want to learn but I get ANGRY when filter (read
procmail/maildrop) and email clients (read mutt) get
more difficult than the server (read qmail).
If maildrop and mutt frustrate you, why don't you use a simpler
mailprogram with GUI and integrated filter functionality? Mutt and
maildrop are not easy to use.
