E-mailer I could find and those I could get installed were never fully
satisfactory. Balsa and Mahogany are the closest I've ever come but
I've always come back to Pine for every day use. The only reason I
can see for using a GUI client is more complete integration with the
graphical environment and none of the ones I've tried are good enough.
Probably the first one that allows full drag'n'drop support will win
out. By that I mean to and from my GNOME compatible file manager, the
message index, and the mail attachments area (including the option to
append to an existing mbox mail file when dragging from the mail
folder index to the mbox file in the file manager). Perhaps also
drag'n'drop to and from The Gnome Address Book and the compose/message
display areas. Until then, you just can't beat Pine for feature
completion and flexibility. Maybe you never will.

PS. I've never tried Mutt.
