I use alpine myself, but the core members of the group---who sometimes remind me of the dinosaurs in the back row of AA meetings (see *Infinite Jest* if you're interested)---swear by Mutt (repeatedly swear by it without noticeable fatigue, every time this self-same question is posed, which is about once a week, but then I exaggerate, of course, for effect). The thing is, though, 99% of the people asking this question are looking for a GUI app, so the Mutt responses are nearly always *à côté de la plaque*. This doesn't bother these recidivists, because they don't really concern themselves with the question asked. All they really care about is the answer given: *Their* answer. So please, do yourself a favor, in the future, tailor your questions to the answers, rather than expecting the reverse. -:)
